    '94 LT1 EEHack analysis using WB

    So I have the WB installed and 99.9% confident it's reporting accurately.
    I tuned the MAF table previously using NB data and stoich of 14.3.
    I changed stoich to 14.1 in the .bin after installing the WB, because it just seemed to run a little lean to me.
    So analyzing some information now I come up with the below results.




    Here is the Display Percentage results.



    Engine really responded nicely to the stoich change, overall seems to run better.
    Looks like a touch more to the MAF table, and it'll be good.
    The gauge is set to display lambda, and hovers around 1.0+/- most of the time under mild driving/idle.
    PE seems good until get to ~3000rpm, then it is pretty rich! 11.8-11.2 and this is not a WOT situation.
    Any tips on fixing PE? AFAIK this is a completely stock engine.

    looks like your attachments are broken

    i'd start removing 3-4% at a time from the pe/rpm table above 4000rpm and see where that puts you...

    personally, i'd push PE AFR as close to 13:1 as you can at high rpms, say above 4000rpm

    i'd also reccommend installing the wot blm locker patch if you haven't already.

    I dunno wth is up with pics? google photos has been an issue lately.
    all 3 show on my laptop or android phone.
    on my iphone they do not show. Seeing same on other forums as well.
    I'll definitely play with PE table, cuz right now it is stupid rich.
    Also like to say thanks again for EEHack, it's a great tool.
    Even tuning with NB it got it in the ballpark. Now that I have the WB it's an even better tool.
    Car runs so much better than when I bought it.

    ~12:1 isn't stupid rich by any means. ive seen stock lt1s about 11:1 wot.

    you could aim for 12.5:1 and be very close to peak power while still playing it safe for unknown fuels...

    glad eehack is working for you, your results look very good and you are definitely using the analyzer as intended.

    consider though that you have very little high rpm data being analyzed, if you disable pe and do a bunch of high rpm playing around, you might find your pe and non-pe both gain consistency, and your pe targets will function as intended..

    Well...looking closer @ log, picking snapshot(s) so to speak.
    RPM 4489, TPS 79.2%, TARGET AFR 11.40, WB AFR 11.63, PE active Lambda = .79
    RPM 4637, TPS 69.0%, TARGET AFR 11.40, WB AFR 11.06, PE active Lambda = .75
    IMHO too much fuel.
    I adjusted the MAF table, and I'd like to get some more data again before adjusting the PE table.
    It's getting there though.

    One small oddity that has been present ever since I bought it, haven't figured out yet.
    Sometimes on a warm restart after sitting for a few minutes it goes real lean initially on restart.
    Only momentarily less than 60 seconds, and not every restart.
    The WB has verified again what I thought/felt was happening. Not sure what/where this problem actually is.

    Haven't been able to capture hot restart idle oddity yet. It's about 1 out of 50 starts...elusive bugger.
    My gut is telling me it may be a wiring issue? I've already had to fix several PO repairs, and some other faulty wiring,

    I am curious though, how does EEHack calculates the MAF AFR percentage trims with wideband data?

    If getting 14.6 AFR, and BLM's lower than 128, shouldn't I be seeing some 0% or -% trims?

    it uses a patch to insert target AFR into the datstream, then compares that target data to the wideband to arrive at a percentage difference.

    this is mostly intended for (and works very well with) open loop tuning.

    (it doesn't work with WOT, as there's no good way to put a real WOT AFR target in the datastream)

    Ah, so then I need to ignore the %, and adjust manually.
    Not sure how report 14.1 output accurately with MTX-L.
    Works well using lambda, not so much as anything other than 14.7 AFR
    Last time I tried when tuning my 16197427 equipped Jeep, only way I could get any accuracy was changing the .adx and using lambda.

    Lot of people get themselves wrapped around the axle with widebands, stoich, etc. And there are too many things to set right that can go wrong if you want something other than 14.7 The general recommendation is to move to Lambda and work soley in that. For me, being old school, I leave everything in straight gasoline at 14.7. Then my brain recognizes stoich, WOT values, etc as they use to be. EVEN if the actual combustion values are different because of the actual fuel. So, you're 99% sure your wideband is correct. 1) Did you reprogram the display for something other than straight gas? 2) What output from it are you using, analog, digital? 3) Does it need to be programmed separately from the display. (only familiar with the LC-1) 4) How does EEHack interpret that input? If you did not change the WB to display correctly for a different fuel, eg. still 14.7 and you 'set' your bin to 14.3 and think it's lean, it would in fact be spot on at 14.7. You wouldn't see 14.3 as that is rich for gasoline.

    Yeah the WB is reconfigured. The 2 outputs are analog and also reconfigured.
    I have always preferred lambda, it is just easier to work with IMHO.
    When software uses AFR it bugs me, but it's just an extra step to deal with to make corrections.

    EEHACK confused me is all, because I was seeing 14.6-14.9 AFR
    The EEHACK % trims were off from what I thought they should be. Steve confirmed this with the info that the target AFR was used by EEHACK.
    Since my WB analog output was configured to report 14.7 as stoich to EEHACK.
    However my stoich/target AFR in .bin was set @ 14.1, so the % trims should simply be ignored/not used when I do my adjustments.

    Maybe he could add a target AFR override on the analyze window, or maybe it's possible to manually edit the config file? I dunno...

    Cool. Curious, how does EEHack accept the analog input? In mustang world, we tend to use the formally used egr input into the EEC for analog or the separate digital output straight into the laptop.

    The MTX-L seems to work very well.
    I have both outputs in use, stock o2 sensor was removed, and pcm is being fed an analog signal from the MTX-L.
    Other output goes to EEHack via pin D27.

    Watching the gauge while I drive, jives with what I see in the data logs. So I am confident it is working correctly.
    I used it in the past, in the same way to tune my Jeeps running 16197427 pcm's.
    Loaned it out to a buddy, and he also had good results using it on his LS swap in a Jeep.
    For the $ the MTX-L is a quality piece IMHO.

    I would love to get one of the new Innovate dual WB's, maybe some day when I get some disposable hobby/play $?

    Don't have schematics here. What was D27 used for before? It's not recommended in the ford camps to replace the NB with a pseudo NB signal from a WB. In general, it adds a conversion delay and the ford eecs sample with an expected delay as it switches it's LAMBSE's back and forth. If it doesn't detect the mixture yet switch cause of the delay, it continues to swing the LAMBSE further than needed in order to detect a switch happening. Guys are always told to weld in a dedicated bung especially when they seem to be chasing tuning ghosts. I would think the GM PCM's work similar.

    the rarely used egr position on pin d27, or the ac pressure sensor input, both are in the stock datastream

    unfortunately they aren't great for linearity but they're good nuff with a bit of tweaking
