ECMlink It's e85 time ..... high z 1650s

[SasaniFab]

Well I finally drove down to NY and picked up some e85, the station is about 20 minutes away which is not bad considering I'm paying 180 dollars for 10 gallons of c16. I'm gunna swap out hangers and re install the walbro 450. Before I left the shop I installed the fic high z 1650s and updated the voltage values. Now it's a matter of the global and deadtime. The paper work has me at around -73 for gas .... if any of you have run these injectors on e85 what did you start at?

Dam I'm on low z same injector size. Harder to tune but use the calculator like I did then play with the #'s on deadtime and if you have to the global to just get it started then, as you know, adjust by the way car feels while you're sitting in it. I relate the #'s to turning carb screws or adjusting jet size to rry to make it simple in explanation.
Good luck!!! I am following the progress!

Cars officially running on the 1650s, took a little time but I figured it out, I also installed the new ignition. So much better up top. Maybe it's in my head but, car is so much smoother.

I fet like I was getting ahead of myself, the car is still running on the race gas. I'm gunna put the e85 in when this 5 gallons is gone. Still on 24 psi no knock. Ecmlink link is estimating me around 420 ...seems about right for my setup.

When you swap to E85, the ECMlink global fuel calculator literally does the work for you. Enter your BFP, injector size and 9.8:1 for stoich. The calculator will give you a baseline number, which if your car is setup correctly, should be pretty close. From there, you'll need to make tweaks based on tuning pulls.

For deadtime, I already explained that in depth: http://www.dsmtuners.com/threads/gsc-s1-vs-gsc-s2-should-i-go-up.511210/page-3#post-153641737

If you've got specific questions, LMK.

Thanks for your help, it's appreciated. I think I finally got a hang of setting up these Injectors. My first problem was I didn't plug in the correct voltages into the table. I also had my deadtime set wayyyyy to high. I'm in the 300's currently and wot my car stays Within 10.5-11-5 , I just need to get the sd table straightened out and I think I'll be good.
