I have an oscillation cycle that is about 2 seconds long.
I've made minor and major changes to the idle PID settings to see if the IAC could control it but it may not be capable of it as it is too slow to react. It IS capable of making it much worse, but it rarely opens before the end of the downslope. It actually works best with the PID's zeroed out.
But I have come across something that could help. While MAP definitely lags the RPM drop that begins the cycle and Inj pw shows a slight decrease, the cylinder mass is definitely dipping before the RPM dip begins. It begins to dip Almost a quarter second before the RPM begins to drop. I'm also seeing a small (or maybe not so small considering it's about 4ms to start with) drop in the inj pw as much as 1/4 second in advance of the airmass. Meaning the cycle begins with a dropoff in the pulsewidth. Now with the MAP and TPS holding steady, what else could cause it to do this?
Any thoughts on where to look? There is no consistent correlation with the IAC at the beginning of the first dip. I know some of you have studied EFI theory and would love to see your thoughts.
