Thanks.

Thanks for nothing.

For nothing? Provide a schematic and I will prove what I am saying to you. Why in the world would you throw out injection monitoring for far less accurate and more expensive and harder to install dual flow meters that don't even have hardware/software written for them yet?!?

You are doing things the hard way,
you are welcome.

[racprops]

Because yours is unable to read the real fuel flow.

Because yours runs off the ground cycle of the ECU.

Because I need a more usable system, for my testing.

But this is worthless, I will not show you what I am doing.

I only asked for a system to compair the flow meter's counts.

Help me with that or not.

With saturated injectors and a manifold referenced regulator, it does a better job than the available flow meters that I have seen specifications for. Does your car not have these things?

The guino can also work with a positive signal, it is a menu setting.

I'm trying to understand that statement. your thing is switching b+? but why cant it switch the negative lead? Do you expect a flow meter to be more accurate than monitoring injector open time (assuming you can straighten the latter out)? if so, why? Do you have a specification sheet for these flow meters?

It is worthless because you are not explaining anything, and being secretive, and not listening.

No, you made misleading and unsupported statements too, and you cross posted which is very improper netiquette.

You do not get to mandate the discussions, especially when make unsupported assertions. I see many unaddressed issues with your posts, and with your plan, and with your methods.

I can try to help you (and anyone else reading this) in my own way if I please. I also reserve the right to call you out if you call me out.

You can keep your secrets, but such a selfish stance does not merit selfless help from anyone. Nor does it provide any confidence that it is the best approach.

If the MPGunio can be reset by me to work off the B+ that might work, so how do I switch it?

Rich

hit left and right to go into setup, change "InjTrg 0-Dn 1-Up" to 1, hit ok, go through rest of values in setup (left+right should advance without saving changes for that value).

This will tell the guino to look for a rising signal to indicate injector opening, for cars that have positive switched injectors.

[racprops]

Thanks.

I will try that.

More when I have something to report.

If your car is negative switched, and your device is switching positive, it wont help though. You should make a simple change to your device to also switch negative in that case.

[racprops]

Well I can't.

So we are back to my needing a system that does not run off the car's ECU.

Will you help me with that??

I haven't seen a decent accurate and affordable flow meter surface yet, so it isn't a priority for me. Do you have a link to one that you have in mind?
