[QUOTE="Willie, post: 16453937, member: 14133"] I was able to capture a couple of datalogs tonight. The final result: It works better than I ever thought it could. On my initial attempt at tune values to pull fueling, I had to take a guess. Since then, I now see in a few other PIDs that allow me to use them to accurately calculate what these values should be, given a target AFR. I tried with two different values tonight and both were spot on. One last item for this thread. I will put together a concise list of pros and cons of e85 and methanol and post it here soon. I am now finished with test and tune. Now the research begins on the patenting process. I think I will also dabble a touch in market research too. [b]HOW IT WORKS[/b] Arm the methanol (turn on the gain knob). A digital voltmeter will turn on and will allow you to set it exactly in the same position every time. This value determined by experimenting. Arming the system can be done regardless of engine running or not, idling or moving. It doesn't matter. The first thing you'll notice is your engine temp gauge zeros out. This is your visual confirmation that the PCM has recognized methanol system is armed and ready. That's it... Enjoy the ride! When you turn off the methanol, the temp gauge returns to normal, alongside everything else. Willie [/QUOTE]
