With all the information you guys have provided me with I think I have a good starting point to begin constructing a curcuit. I am currently offshore and work in the robotics field. So maybe I can get a few of these electrical engineers to lend some expertise. In your opinion is what I am...
Thanks for posting the link man. I will study it well. FYI between TB.com,Vortexbuick,gnttype and multiple other vendors I have printed off three packs of printer paper worth of research. Enough to fill up 4 three ring binders. I understand the neverending common questions being asked but I feel...
You have a very valid point and that would work. But I wanted to have something a little different and possibly adjustable parameters for each warning and function.
Understood RmvBfrFlight,I honestly do not have the electrical expertise needed to make a circuit needed to read those perameters. I was hoping to intersept a wider analog voltage range to monitor knock. Maybe I need to look at intercepting the votage sent to retard timing AFTER the ecu does it's...
I've had two Spectre cone filters over the years. One I purchased and another was given to me. Both of them rusted,quickly I might add. I wouldn't even run them on a lawn mower!
So to make sure i got this right before I start soldering me up a circuit.
If 9v is no knock and you are saying a warning system should sound off between 2-5v is it safe to say that 0v is the most severe knock that the sensor can read? If so then that is the exact information I was looking...
Thanks for the response RmvBfrFlight. So knowinb that the knock sensor is recieved as some form of data stream like rs232 or 485 gues I need to look at finding the overall voltage range the ecu will send out to retard timing under a knock situatuion. Then I may be able to use that with a series...
I have searched for a few hours now with no definative answer or info so I pose a few questions.
1) What are the voltage or ohm range seen at low levels of knock and timing retard?
I understand we gauge knock by observing timing retard. That being said the knock sensor it self has to be...
Noticed a small oil leak and traced it back to the oil cooler line located directly in the top of the oil filter base.
I removed the line and checked the housing for burr's and debris.
After flooking closer I found a cut o-ring. Be careful not to just jam it in the bottom first then tighten...
As of right now it's only mods are a tt chip and 160 therm. Some "gnx" 16s and the rest of it is un molested. The engine got rebuilt around a 1000-2000 miles ago w/supporting documentation. I plan on starting with the basics(hot wire,adjustable fpr,340 fuel pump,ls1 valve springs,hi flow...
Well let me start off by saying thanks a ton fo all the information on this site. Between Turbobuick and Gnttype I have printed around 300 pages of invaluable information. Enough for a good sized three ring binder. I'm shooting for around 425-450 ftlb at the wheels. Just a good dd set up. From...
