This is where discussions of EFI systems, Dual Carbs, Single Carb mods and plans can be discussed and shared.
If you are working on or have a problem with stock carbs then your questions do not belong here, please post them in the Goldwing Tech Discussions Forum.
UPDATE !!!!!!!!!
Got power to the computer system!!!!!!!!!!
Still have a few wires to hook up................
You might notice a red wire just kinda hanging in the picts, it is the 12 volt line to the MicroSquirt, I plan to not hook that up until I am ready to plug it in to my laptop. I think that will be tomorrow.
I have hooked up so far:
Oxygene sensor,, actually seeing a signal on the volt/ohm meter
Ignition input, for rpm, from the existing ignition system.
im always lurking on your mod project ...i dont post much on it as im rather clueless on FI project but it looks like your getting to homestretch .....great going ...your quite the doer
Looking good! I had a meter like that when I first started in electronics some 40 yrs ago.

In the 60's, people took acid to make the world weird.
Now the world is Weird and people take Prozac to make it normal.

Yea that is my old simpson 260 I used to use them in the Navy a lot, when I got the chance I had to get one of my own.
I have others, like a nice Fluke, I just like the ole simpson.
It is like a bad habit....

Wednesday 12/28/11 I got all the wires I will be using now from the MicroSquirt wired to terminals so I can hook up sensors and check voltages with the volt/ohm meter.
No pictures, I will try to take some this week.
Happy 2012, just think, a year or so ago this was just an IDEA, What was I thinkin?????????

I have been working on a Tilt switch and working on my Ham Radio station some.
I purchased several tilt switches to check them out and see if they would work. More later....
I have been working on Grounding my 40 foot tower for my Ham Station because I am going to install a sloper antenna for 80 and 160 metres. A sloper antenna uses the tower as part of the antenna and it needs a very good Ground to work right, so I drove 3 ground rods in the ground and attached them to each of the 3 legs of my tower. I will do some radial wires later.
Besides that it has been cold in the shop lately, my concrete floor gets really cold and stays that way. So, that has kept me from doing a lot out there.
Thanks for the interest and the bump, more later.......... John kb0ou............

. I've been told that before. Sorry, I guess I'm a cricket.

Please let me know if you have any questions. I might be able to help, as I have a lot of experience with megasquirt and did a similar project on my camaro.
The only issue that immediately comes to mind from my MS days is smoothing of the Vac signal. With smaller motors you may need to restrict the line to get a usable output from the MAP sensor.
