Re: AEM Smart Coil and tacho

Yeah, that or its expecting a high voltage feedback from the coil discharging to run the tacho and tell the ECU the coil has fired. There is 2.2k resistor inline from the blue wire to the tacho so I think it'll be a high voltage signal. But this is the kicker. If I try run the coil without the blue ...

Re: AEM Smart Coil and tacho

Hey Matt,
Your right, the tacho output for the ECU is from the CAS. The tacho output for the gauge cluster is a signal from the coil. I may need to get an adapter to make it work.

Thanks for your reply :)

Re: Z31 cold start issues

Ahh, I see. Ill make some changes and see how I go tomorrow morning. I managed to get it a little better by changing the latency of the injectors but its still a bit shit. Thanks Matt.

By the way, got that 32gtr ecu sorted too, working nicely now :).

Z31 cold start issues

Howdy Having an issue lately with cold start. The car will start fine and then after a few seconds it leans right off until it dies. It will do this until it gets to about 40 degrees engine temp and then it runs better. The log shows that as the engine starts to lean off from 13afr, nothing changes ...

Re: Can i use readings off nistune to diagnose my MAF?

For sure man! if there is any irregularities in the voltage while you are driving like voltage spikes or drops then you will be able to see it for sure. Even just have the laptop in the engine bay and monitor your readings while you fiddle with the maf.

Re: Idle problem

I have had this same problem for as long as I can remember on my 87 Z. I have learned to just deal with it because I've tried everything in Nistune and it just wont get any better. Although I have changed my dizzy assembly and it seems to be happier but that might just be in my head. Haven't had tim...

While the outter case has the right numbers stamped onto it, inside its different and a google search doesnt come up with anything on the ECU number.. Reason Im asking is because I want...

Howdy I've been having this problem for a while but just been working around it. Im running the software on a Toshiba Tecra A3X and for some reason, if i use the pad thing to move the mouse around and touch it to click on something, everything will disappear in the program.
