On to phase II - New engine
My 235 fuel injection project is done!!! Although we are still troubleshooting a noisy VSS signal and fine tuning the VE tables I am officially declaring this phase of the project successfully completed. The truck starts, idles, and drives beautifully. A/C, cruise control, and overdrive are all working great. We have logged almost 3000 miles while testing. With my friend Greg's help we were able to overcome several unforeseen problems including Idle Air Control (IAC) volume and distribution, manifold heat( or lack thereof), fuel distribution strategy, and we even found a couple of GM computer software glitches. Though it was difficult at times it was also a lot of fun and very satisfying overall. Without Greg's help and knowledge of the GM computer this project would not have been possible. He even wrote some custom software code to allow the computer to control the Gear Vendors overdrive and the electric manifold heaters.
I hope ya'll enjoyed reading about it.
