Can you simulate a map for me? My bike is going from Race Ti fuel map, stock crossover and airbox with Ti mufflers to ??? fuel map with pod filters, FBF crossover, and Ti mufflers...I understand that it's mostly to find and identify which functions change/affect what in GuzziDiag though. Love the project.
I have that ecu on my jackal and quota. The jackal would get 50mpg and the quta only 28-32. I ended up getting close to 45 on the quota by changing the acceleration map. But developed a very sluggish acceleration which is intermitant. http://wildguzzi.com/forum/index.php?topic=59717.msg982071;topicseen#msg982071
That would certainly explain the value of the brass temp sensor holder..
If I understand this discussion correctly, it seems that air pressure and air temp are fairly minor variables or maybe better stated as variables where the range might not make much difference.
I guess I'm looking for confirmation that my Stelvio (air/oil cooled) is subject to over cooling too and would benefit from a thermostat in the oil line.
Sorry, I can't answer that one. I neither have a Stelvio nor have I worked on the 5AM ECU.CheersMeinolf
Hi Peter,Yes, that is my understanding as well. However, both can be set right, as the values in the 15M are way off. Both load points and values in the trim tables.CheersMeinolf
Hi Ken,I'll gladly share my findings and my map (for free). As mentioned earlier, however, the mainstream and quite detailed discussion takes place in the german forum.The reasons why I started looking into the details of the way the ECU works are threefold. I know Beard (the guy who cracked the protocols and disassembled the code of the different ECUs and wrote the GuzziDiag-suite) and Paul (who is the field engineer in this enterprise) and wanted to support them with the limited means and knowledge I have at my disposal. Secondly I wanted to learn something along the route, I am a seriously challenged person regarding electrics & electronics. Thirdly I started wondering why a 230kg, 80PS, 1liter V11-engine consumes more fuel than a 1400kg, 80PS, 1liter car during a comparable driving situation. The bike having the advantage of better aerodynamics also.My conclusion on 3. was that Guzzi didn't really invest much time into using the capabilities of the ECU and the sensors. Many facts seem to support this. Such as useless trim tables, no fuel cut-off during deceleration or the acceleration map being used either half-heartedly or not at all. Which, I guess, is due to the time and money Guzzi could afford (not) to spent 15 years ago on fine-tuning the V11 engines. The result is like average temperature in a clinic - it's not optimal but not half-bad either.Taking into account the possible variations of the engine, environmental factors, different fuel quantities, state of maintenance, etc an average setting of the maps seems ok. However, my target is to find an optimal setting for my engine. And whether that will be optimal for any other engine is the question. I doubt it.So, you are welcome to use the findings (with a grain of salt) and apply it to your engine.CheersMeinolf
