Re: 1986 Ford Mustang 5.0 EFI swap
This trigger wheel knows which cylinder is which and they say it's inside the distributor? Would it be CAM sensor than? Good call. Thanks for catching that! I'll change that now. Are you ready to crank it without fuel to see if you read cranking RPM? Unfortunately this is for my friend's project an...

Re: 1986 Ford Mustang 5.0 EFI swap
Finally got the tune uploaded. This is again my first stab at Rusefi and Tunerstudio so hopefully it's decent. The pin mapping is correct, and I'm hoping the settings are as well, though I know the ford idle solenoid is natorious on tunerstudio to be tricky so hopefully I can iron that out later. Ma...

Re: Ford TFI PIP decoding
https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi/wiki/Images/triggers/trigger_65.png This is a cool visualization here! Am I missing some feature in console or tuner studio to view this stuff?

Re: 1986 Ford Mustang 5.0 EFI swap
Finally got everything mapped out in Tuner Studio. The only thing needed at this point is the trigger, which AndreyB is graciously helping me understand. Then I'll get the case and everything buttoned up, and all that should be needed to start the engine is hooking everything up, adding the wideband...

Re: Ford TFI PIP decoding
Hm. You're right. Looks pretty straight forward so far. You just make the declarations so that Java would be able to create the new option and declared the appropriate variables and functions to call. Structure is a bit different then I'm used to, but doesn't look too alien. I'm assuming from here I...

Re: Ford TFI PIP decoding
Source code is the answer unfortunately. Adding new trigger into rusEFI is a series of 7 trivial steps but describing it is harder than actual doing. It's easier for me to just add it than to explain :( Do I understand it right that we have 8 tooth, 7 tooth are wider and one is a bit narrower? I fi...

Ford TFI PIP decoding
Hello all. I am finishing up a plug and play for my buddy's 86 foxbody mustang 5.0. I am fairly new to rusefi and would like direction on how to add a trigger for this vehicle. My background is mainly in simple MSP430 microcontroller setups, and I'm decent at coding in C, (not as great in C++ but wi...

Re: rusEFI and a 95 Mustang
Hello! I'm new to the DIY ECUs but not on car electronics and pcb manufacturing. I'm want to develop a plug n play ECU for my 95 Mustang GT (5.0, TFI ignition) and then later for my 95 Mustang v6 (3.8, EDIS-6). I've searched around but couldn't find much information about support for these ignition...

Re: 1986 Ford Mustang 5.0 EFI swap
Just got the donor ECU in, and boy am I glad I waited! My suspicions were correct. There were two types of cases made for the EEC-IV, but the pinout is the same. The green outline as seen is one style, and the other is a bit wider but has these angled cuts. I took the smaller of the two outlines and...

Re: 1986 Ford Mustang 5.0 EFI swap
And sometimes there's a mix of both for no apparent reason. The factory GM ECU for my engine is LS switched for the fuel pump relay, but HS switched for the radiator fan. Interesting! I wonder why?

Re: 1986 Ford Mustang 5.0 EFI swap
Well, I'm glad I checked back through things. I actually had the IAC wired to a high side output. I didn't even think that it was a low-side! I ended up re-checking all the outputs and turns out the check engine light was also a low-side switch as well. On that note, what would normally use high-sid...

Re: 1986 Ford Mustang 5.0 EFI swap
Nope, it's not 1k, it really is a single ohm. It exists to add ESR to C1006, as they together form a snubber to damp out ringing between the supply power wiring (which is an inductor!), L2002, and C1001. The switching power supply means not only that there can be voltage ripple on the output, but a...

Re: 1986 Ford Mustang 5.0 EFI swap
The point of the main relay is so that you don't have to have all the injector/idle valve/ignition/electronic throttle/etc current flowing through the ignition switch, and the ECU can turn it off if something goes wrong, killing the engine. Ok! That makes sense. For my personal setup I will definit...

Re: 1986 Ford Mustang 5.0 EFI swap
Also, I'm working on getting the BOM for ordering the parts for your v0.5 proteus. R906 value is 1. I'm assuming this is 1kOhm? Can't find a value listed anywhere. As far as ordering the boards, it looks like you used generic libraries for a lot of stuff. Is this so that the assembler can come up wi...

Re: 1986 Ford Mustang 5.0 EFI swap
You already have a main relay, it's labeled "EEC Power Relay" on the wiring diagram. The ECU doesn't need constant 12v - just switched 12v from the ignition switch (this one is pretty low power - maybe 100mA draw), and the 12V_MR pin, which is for higher power stuff on the ECU, to be powe...

Re: 1986 Ford Mustang 5.0 EFI swap
Also, do you really want the main 12v and 12v MR both connected together? If the ECU has a pin switched by the main relay, you want that one connected to 12V_MR, and the ignition switch connected to the other. Hmm. I saw the stuff about the main relay in the wiki but wasn't sure if it was needed. T...
