my friend just installed the first gen VAFC in his 99 Si civic , I know he needs to take it to a dyno to have it being do anying benefit, but he needs to have his car be able to drive to the place to tune it.
We did the first intial precedure were u have to hold the trottle at WOT, and close Trottle, but when we start his car it runs funny, its cutting out past 2000 rpm, like its not gettin enough fuel, Is this normal for when u first install a vafc? what do we need to do to get it runing decent so he can get it to a dyno?

 

need help BUMP

 

What is the throttle percentage set to??

 

I havn't toched anything give me a sec

 

we have not messed with any settings, just the intial ones, were u dont turn the car on all the way, just the ignition.

 

BUMP MY CAR NEED HELP

 

bump -o

 

Wtf, its not supposed to do anything.

You wire it up and go. Sensor 06 in, 06 out, 4 cyl, upwards-right throttle.

Whats the deal?

 

that's what I am saying

 

Was it used? Did you initialize it after installing before setting?

 

Sounds like you wired it up wrong, VAFC's dont affect **** when you first install them correctly

hmmm

he doesnt have a stock bottom end. would that matter?

and we did everthing u said.

 

Double check your wiring, its not wired up correctly.

 

Make sure you dont have a pervious tune on there. Make sure everythings on 0 and that you did the throttle set up correctly (10 seconds WOT, 10 seconds off, turn off turn on).

Also i will see if the previous tune is on there still. , but yet we did all the intial settings before u turn the car on, with the WOT and Closed throttle.

 

hat screen are you supposed to do the WOT and closed on ?

How do I reset the VFAC correctly?

 

Just go through all the fuel curve settings and make sure there all at 0. I cant remember where but theres also a reset setting in etc. i think.

 

thanks luser

 

ok checked the wire and a wire wasn't makein good connection reset everything It runs now but when it hits were vtec engages nothing happens it bogs done never adjusted vtech point also it smells like it is running rich

 

hi

 

did u go in and set everything to 0, even though u recet it, did u go back and just check? if u need to u can just not take it past 5 until u get your car tuned...

 

yeah , I am going to have Joe look at it and make sure it is all hooked up correct etc etc but the VTM wire was the one that wasn't makeing a good connection. And I hope I didi theWOT part and closed part right but I reset everything

 

hmm, allrihgt well good luck.

 

Yeah I don't know how the wire lost connection but it was barily there for some reason it came off werethe kid before me must of had a vafc wired up ahh

 

ohh i c
