Re: Difference between LAMBSE 1 and 2

A small difference is normal, but yours is quite large. A small exhaust leak can often cause the issue that you see.

Re: Gt swapped to Cobra engine

I don't know that a different computer/strategy will buy you anything worth the effort. Perhaps if you had a 96-98 Cobra engine with IMRCs, but even that would be marginal. I'd stay with what you have and tune the new engine and config.

Re: O2s read max lean after CL kicks in??

One suggestion that you might try is resetting the EEC. I've seen weird behavior before when the KAM gets corrupted. Not sure if you've tried that yet.

Re: A9L2 low load cruising misfire or buck

I glanced over it and still come back to my other response. I don't know what others with your combo are running for spark, and I have a 4V, but mine couldn't handle that level of spark (38 degrees) without misfiring at that load level. It would be an easy test to just take 5 degrees out globally an...

Re: A9L2 low load cruising misfire or buck

You made a brief mention of spark. I had a similar issue and it took years for me to figure out that I was running a little bit too high of spark at low loads. Lowering my spark solved it.

Re: How to null a table

The EEC will always use the lowest aggregate spark when all adders are included. If you want to have it ignore one of those tables then raise the timing to amounts that are higher than the table you wish to use. Again, don't forget the timing adders though because there is more than just the table t...

Re: Thermactor backfire

Okay... I did some logging this afternoon and discovered something. While it does go lean at first, it then goes rich and "pulsates" lean to rich. My MAF flow pulsates at the same rate also. This means while decelerating in gear my blower is causing increased flow as compared to what I am using. Per...

Yep, I have cats. So is the thought that by lowering the injector offset I am reducing the fuel when decelerating? How does that reduce the fuel while decelerating?

Oh and my wideband is before the cats.

I have a friend with a 96 cobra that had a NOVI2k on it, it certainly had the potential to make more power than my car but in his case it felt noticeably less strong down low.

If the EECIV is like the EECV, then you are correct. The relative throttle position is set at key on.

Yes, I know how to build one. Just need to look up the MAF wiring. I guess you'd need to address both elements.

I don't think any MAF actually pegs until well over 5v. I think the EEC pegs. As I recall, the newer slotted MAFs will output 14v if you flow enough through them.

That is an interesting option and I wonder why more folks don't do that instead of getting new MAFs. How would you wire that up?

The bypass should be open while cruising. This reduces pressure into the TB when you aren't requesting it. I have seen where MAF backwash from the bypass can cause erratio flows. Make sure that isn't happening.
