mega squirters, need your advise.
Me and a friend bought ms1 and ms2 ecu's as we wanted to go efi. We are trying to map the cars, well trying to get a decent idle for mot. My friends car is up and running so we are having a go. We cant get the car to idle correct unless we take all of the fuel out of the bins (all this is obviously being done over 70 deg C ) We have dropped the bins down to as low as 4 and the timing is set to 12 deg. If we raise the bins to 10 we are getting a lot of black smoke and lumpy running which is telling us it is rich.
At best we can only get 10.5 AFR which is way to rich for idle. We have read several manuals such as extra efi and mega manuals but what ever we try it isn't helping. I don't know if it makes a difference but a brief spec is below:
2.1 zetec turbo
480 cc H/I injectors
MS 1
21 psi map sensor
Cheers for the help.

just had a look at our tune for the 2.1 we got and our idle figures are
manifold revs 800 1100 1600
25kpa 17 17 26
35kpa 18 20 29
45kpa 21 24 36
were on slightly bigger injectore and you should find it'll like idling around 15 afr, make sure your idle timings are all correct as somethings a miss

Something funny isn't going on with any of the extra enrichment bits is it? and if you post up a screen print of your VE table im sure some one will let you know if it looks okay, be a good place to start.

just swoped the injectors to smaller 195cc to see if this corrected the problem and it has made a hell of a difference. We have now got it to idle around 14-15 AFR. So what is stopping us running larger injectors? is it as rick says and that it needs to be MS2 to run these?
When running the 480cc injectors the bins were as low as 4 to get a good AFR idle but with the 195 cc injectors there in there 20's. But every other map we have looked at has been around 20-30 on idle and nowhere near 4 !! Is there a reason why this is as low as 4 or dosen't this matter?

Perhaps the injector opening time was too large.
MS1 with the extra code is not the optimum solution for running large injector in relation with a small engine, but 480cc injectors with a 2.1 engine shouldn't be that bad really.
What req_fuel did you run anyhow? Previously and now. The standard setting, if you are starting to tune from scratch, is 15. This would result in exactly what you desribed if you didn't correct it and just started to tune the VE map right away.

I had no problems running 480cc VXR's on a 1.6 RST, should be fine on a 2.1
Looking at your map Geoff i'd turn the required fuel setting down to around 3.5 (currently at 7.3) and that should give you the resolution you need.
It's under Basic Setting, Engine Constants in Tuner Studio.

its idleing on 16 VE @ 35 KPA. it's running 14.5 AFR with no ICV nice and smooth. This is a friends MS1 ecu so would the same princables apply on MS2 as rick mentioned about frequenceys not being low enough on MS1.

480cc is small on a zetec turbo but still good for upto 350ish hp.
i have no prob's running 780cc injectors on mine and it idles in the 14s all day long with no iscv.

we are thinking of putting ICV on. In your oppinion is it worth having on and what settings is it to run one? There is the settings BG on/off and PWM.
