warm up question
Wednesday, October 25, 2006 6:10 PM
hey guys, im trying to word something right here so bare with me, maybe im way off maybe not. this has to do with a n issue im having. at what temp does the computer stop relying on its stored warm up fuel maps? my car doesnt warm up past 1/4 way in these cold days, im sure its mainly because ive got a small hole drilled in my t stat for when we were burping the new motor but i didnt know it would affect it this much. anyways, when does the ecu stop relying on the warm up maps?

I believe at different temps, it takes a certain amount of change before it goes into closed loop, if that is what you are asking.

it is, im wondering what temps it comes into affect at.

im asking because im having a hard time tuning the car this year. theres a built motor in it right now and last year at mroe boost i was still safely runnign 10.5 - 11.4 afr at wot and now with mroe fuel added im running alot leaner. problem is the car isnt going above 1/4 temp mark and im wondering if thats the cause for my tuneing problem?

the car we believe isnt getting fully warm because of the t stat in it. its 10 degrees colder and theres a 1/8th hole in it to help coolant pass through for the initial cam break in, and now theyre broken in and shes staying cool. mind you the fact that our temps are near freezing doesnt help but thats besides the fact. last year in cooler temps the car still ran properly so i wanna say that my tuning and lean issue is caused by the temps of the car
