I'm installing a MicroSquirt system.
This thread IS NOT A MS/SDS/Carb DEBATE! If you don't like MS please leave. I'm tired of the endless, worthless debate. Anyway, now on the the fun stuff! I am using the TPS off of a Volvo 850 because it's a Bosch sensor (I like sticking with OEM manufacturers when possible), fits the D-shaft throttle and is appropriate for MS. I made the adapter plate today. Attached image(s) |

Okay, here's the update... The MicroSquirt doesn't really run as fuel only. We had a lot of problems with the unit resetting each time a spark plug fired. So this has been sitting a bit while I develop a nice crank fire setup. Plus making the decision of whether to do Coil-Near-Plug or a traditional setup. And finally, my test motor had to leave. But the new test motor will be done next week. I'm waiting to get the crank trigger wheel from the machine shop. I'll keep ya'll posted, but we probably won't have any serious testing underway until late Dec, or in the new year.
QUOTE what about the naked wires on teh back of teh ECU plug? The only bare wire is a 'shield'. It's just for protecting EMI, not actually carrying current. |
