DSM RSM 89conquest Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 ED! I almost gave up on you! I bought the hurricaine 4 and I cant get it to run. The light on my FC1S is not flashing durring cranking. I turn the car on and it flashes once but thats it. The megasquirt software shows the injectors are not pulsing/cycling. The car fired up the first couple times, the map sensor, tps and tach all seem to work fine. Please help me out, i need to make my car run!

lester Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 Hi Ed I am planning for MPI conversion soon with MS. I am reading up all I can on the msefi as well as all Starion MPI related information. Will you reckon the stock harness or at least some parts of it will work with the MS V3.57 SMD board? I am using a 89 Starion engine with a small 16G on a Pajero. Will I be able to get it to work with stock distributor? I have got the following with me now: Magna intake done by Chad with 1/2" spacer at intake flange 4 x 75LB Delphi injectors Magna fuel rail Mustang thottle body with 1/2" spacer and TPS MS V3.57 SMD board Simulator board DB37 connector with long harness, computer cable Fuel regulator Very messed up wiring harness with fuses, connectors and relays. I guess with the above set up I cannot control the ignition part, or can I? I am trying to understand everything fully before I start working on it. Cos it's a daily driver and can't afford too much down time. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
substock Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 hi Ed, didn't want to fill your other post with this, i know you stated that you had stop production of the kits, but will you and Scott be offering kits again? nice to see you back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The FC needs either the msd tach adapter or the one offered by FIP. Just hooking up to the stock crap doesnt work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaltTSI Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 I would like to know how the pink wire off the Fuel Control box works on the TBPro2r , I hear it can control the fans, where do I setup the switch point in the software to enable it?

FuelinjectionPro Posted September 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 HEY ED!! Long time no talky! Heres an issue Ive been having. http://www.starquestclub.com/forum/index.p...amp;hl=ignition Phil I have use a USB to serial converter with the IgnitionPro and not had any problems. But each laptop seems a little different. What com port is your USB set to? Is the IgnitionPro software the current one posted on our site? What windows software is on your laptop? ED! I almost gave up on you! I bought the hurricaine 4 and I cant get it to run. The light on my FC1S is not flashing durring cranking. I turn the car on and it flashes once but thats it. The megasquirt software shows the injectors are not pulsing/cycling. The car fired up the first couple times, the map sensor, tps and tach all seem to work fine. Please help me out, i need to make my car run! What do you have for the ignition system, stock, msd,IgnitionPro ect? If stock do you have the IAM-1A adapter? if so here is how you test it: http://www.angelfire.com/mech/edwardcase00...pt_new_test.JPG I would like to know how the pink wire off the Fuel Control box works on the TBPro2r , I hear it can control the fans, where do I setup the switch point in the software to enable it? The pink wire is controlled by the water temp setting found in SETTINGS> CONSTANTS>FAST IDLE CONTROL. When the temp is below the set temp the pink wire will be at ground level, when above the set temp it will be open. A relay must be used, as the pink wire can only switch a small current. One side of the relay coil(85) would connect to the pink wire the other side of the relay coil(86) would go to a switched 12 volt supply. I will post a fan connection drawing.

Funky Phil Posted September 17, 2008 Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 (edited) Phil I have use a USB to serial converter with the IgnitionPro and not had any problems. But each laptop seems a little different. What com port is your USB set to? Is the IgnitionPro software the current one posted on our site? What windows software is on your laptop? I have windows XP and I downloaded the Ign Pro about 2 weeks ago. As far as the com port Ign Pro is set to CommPort 3. Its the only one that wouldnt give me another error message. phil Edited September 17, 2008 by phinko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lusion972 Posted September 17, 2008 Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 Do you still have any trigger wheel pulleys and vr sensor adapters available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaltTSI Posted September 18, 2008 Report Share Posted September 18, 2008 Thanks Ed! my fans are already on after market relays, so this should be easy, so then I just need to know what the voltage for a new relay would be for the pink wire, if you say it can only switch a "small amount" I'll buy a new relay for that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jms Posted September 18, 2008 Report Share Posted September 18, 2008 Thanks Ed! my fans are already on after market relays, so this should be easy, so then I just need to know what the voltage for a new relay would be for the pink wire, if you say it can only switch a "small amount" I'll buy a new relay for that The pink wire is switched ground on the FIP unit. When the engine is cold, this wire is on, but when the engine reaches normal temp or above, the ECI will shut it off (therefore switched by the ECI). I use it to control my FIDLE. Do not use it to ground your fans directly or you'll kill the ECI. Use relays to turn the fans on, with the pink wire controlling the "Coils" of the relays. For the fans, I'd go with dual 40A relays, assuming that you're running dual fans. Avoid putting any amount of current through the pink wire. I sincerely hope that this is what you were asking, but if I misunderstood you, please disregard my post. Rgds, Jms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
