A9p Act
 

Hi all,

Been busy lately trying to figure out an issue I've been having with my KB Blowzilla install. I've learned more about this than I ever intended. See:

Good Luck, Don

PS I'd like to thank 86GT for helping me with this.

Glad you guy's figured it out. :nice:
Just an FYI for others this will also work on the later models. Although I forgot what the ohm resistance was........:unsure:

Well while we are on this subject......
I wonder what this 5 way switched contraption could be?

Maybe an ACT 5 way switch? :jester:

Dale,

I don't believe that you posted those pics of a flux capacitor gyrator network. There goes our extra 50 HP advantage!

Elaborate, please. :D

Well Lee Hay and I were taking a look at the dustructo rod & main bearings etc. on my old 347 when we commenced to discussing the effects of boost and air charge temps yesterday. I proposed the idea of building a switched gizmo for different levels of boost etc. for ACT/ECT temps. That is when he told me that he had already built such a unit back when he used to have his '94gt, and low and behold he commenced to drag out his prototype...anyway this led to what you see in the pictures above. The switch positions are as follows

pos #1 = 32 deg
pos #2 = 45-50 deg
pos #3 = 70 deg
pos #4 = 90 deg
pos #5 = factory stock deg

I will be testing the above to make sure what we end up with, may change the scale some do not know yet.

The finished product will be potted of course & blah blah blah, as we will both need one of these units for our respective cars etc.

Anyway that is my story and I am sticking to it. :jester:

You know, stangPlus2birds on the corral (Joe) mentioned in one of his posts that the ACT sensors aren't all that accurate - they don't show temp changes quick enough. Of course, he was his usual "my way or the highway" self when talking about it.

FWIW.

Course that doesn't matter when you control what the EEC sees with your switch. Just don't confuse it and the tweecer switch... :banana:

Re: A9p Act
 

Yeah he can be a - not very likeable person - sometimes. Although he does have a point, one of the reasons for the switch.

Yep should not matter how fast the ACT/ECT sensors are if they are controlled elsewhere for what the EEC actually sees. Of course this would not be used in a daily driven car..... :jester:

That would not be good getting the switches confused. It might actaully end in a ... :bomb:

Hi all,

This is getting old....now I don't get any codes with the resistor fix, but I know at times the ACT is actually getting close to 300*F. This morning on my way to work it had just rained so was granny driving. Decelerated and went around a corner and eased into the throttle and it missed and sputtered real bad (not like before when it threw a code and added more timing) but just wouldn't improve and died with steady throttle. So I'm pretty sure the ACTs where pretty high, wasn't datalogging and don't have the WB02 hooked up, so here is the question:

Do I need to add more fuel at higher temps in FN1307 or what to do to fix this?

Thanks, Don
