1986 Ford Mustang 5.0 EFI swap

[AndreyB]

Is there a public github for this board? Can we mention it in first post?

How many boards have you fabbed? Any chance I can have a couple?

In light of the bigger push for Proteus adapters I wonder if we shall make this an official board

Found it! https://github.com/wstefan20/5.0mustangProteusPnP

Took the liberty to mention it in first post

Drew has a 88 mustang would that be same or different pinout?

Goes to Drew tomorrow. Also available at https://www.shop.rusefi.com/shop/p/ford-60-pins-proteus-adapter

I think I will buy this for my 91 ranger (currently has LA2)

86 - 88 should be more similar than newer year. 89 the cars went from SpeedDensity to MAF. 93 Cobra's had a odd pinout for the injectors I think it was injector 7 that they moved to a different pin location. Weather permitting I got the adapter cables soldered up today tomorrow I will plug it into my car and see what I see.

I fired it up today with some mixed results. I seem to be reading the MAP sensor, Volts, dwell and timing but can not seem to read the TPS, IAT, CLT and some other things. I check the the wiring pinout and it matches what you have here. I suspect it's in my SW configuration. For instance it's asking me about 2 Throttle bodies and I only have 1. So I suspect I have a wrong config mapping or something going on to sort out.

Here's my Tuner Studio Files. If anyone has any ideas on the following it would be very helpful.

1. Fuel Pump Seems to be turned off in Tune when I check status but do not see how to turn it back on.
2. CLT/IAT getting readings but they are incorrect.
3. TPS not registering anything at all. Has Dual TB configuration. Not sure how to set for single throttle body.

Thanks for any help.

fuel pump prime is not not on start up but on IGN sensing. Does you battery show +12 volts?

CLT/IAT let's leave those for later, do you know your sensors calibration?

TPS not registering please use a digital multimeter to investigate. Do you see any voltage on... wait a second? tune says AV3 but schematics says AV2?

Yes Battery shows 12 volts.

So when you turn the key on the ECU does not prime the fuel system like the factory ECU you have to crank it?

On the TPS I tried both 2 and 3 settings neither seems to work. I'll check with a meter but it works fine with my stock ecu should not be a wiring issue.

the CLT and IAT settings I don't know off the top of my head been searching online for answers.

it should prime when you turn key ON

previously it was trying to prime on ECU boot which could be powered by laptop not vehicle. that's why +12 on gauge is now more improtant for prime.

Please try "bench test" for injectors or pump?

Did you overall attempt to crank or fire up the vehicle? any logs?

Are the Ford to Proteus adapters still available at all? Is anyone still working on this project? The Github hasn't been updated in a few years. Any chance of this ever leaving beta or perhaps becoming a Hellen? I have a Foxbody that I want to engine swap and am considering my options for a DIY standalone ECU.
