Getting Vvt Working

[tractor]

i think i maybe getting some where with this megasquirt and vvt control checked it today and vvt wasnt working at all turns out the power to the vvt had been turned right down after the dismal rr session in the megasquirt settings i found a min and max duty cycle setting for the vvt min was set to 30 and max to 100 so i have turned min to 0 and max to 52 stuck a bulb in the vvt connecter and ran the engine the bulb is now varying in brightness when i rev it so now i just have to adjust the vvt map to fine tune it hope fully i will get some power

well having just done a compression test on deans 2b zetec he was getting 210 psi so my low reading of 145 psi has got me confused even more

Glad to hear you are getting somewhere with this. Going to make some VE table adjustments yourself?

Has it been on rolling road yet? Any ideas on fuel usage? Good to hear it is working. Still pulling my hair out on mine, back to basics on Saturday.

Fuel usage was quite good when I was running bike carbs of course dependid on how heavy my right foot was
