Hi all

Post by ScubaSteve »

First let me say this project is absolutely brilliant!

On the drive back from work/university I was pondering a good senior project (a ways away) and thought a custom ECU might be cool to look into. Can't say I will be much help yet or at all, but I'm really excited to play around with what you got here!

Now I just have to get a small engine to fry..

Smallest so far is 72cc, but that's a lot of mechanical modifications to fit an injector etc.

Get yourself a 3 cylinder something for a test mule, that would be fun! :)

Agree'd!

I seem to be having a slight issue with the simulator. I can only get the "20150503" version to work (and all previous). The next two updates open display "1200 RPM" and then change to "N/C" and the top bar displays "DISCONNECTED" after a second or two

However, only the latest version will even load the table editor.

Im on windows 7, just updated my Java version.

Will check simulator tomorrow. BTW I've just adjusted the simulator wiki page to show a simpler way to connect Tuner Studio.

Go get an stm32f4discovery :)

Welcome along. I've also been modifying a small engine, but haven't made much progress in recent years as I got a snow blower that now works. Any how, here is a page where I have documented the effort. http://jaredharvey.com/Files/projects/Engine_control/snow_blower/snow_blower.htm

Good to hear from you and I look forward to seeing you around.

Awesome project! I'll likely be following much of your work initally to get a better understanding of everything!

Awesome, I'll be picking one up soon!

I'm kinda sad now. I had an old Honda VF500 sitting arround but I junked it a few months back. Would have made for a good mule :(

Confirmed AOK!

Also..

Could I presumably drive a AEB 1.8L from a passat with the STM32?

Probably. Was that mechanical fuel injection? What are the pieces. Do you have Hall pickup, electronic fuel injectors, coil and distributor ignition?

well, technically you would need an I-O board between passat and stm32

Everything except Mechanical Fuel Injection (I think..). I started a data thread to gather all the info!

Such as the Frankenso or Frankenstein? (Or all those AIO)
