Hi guys,

I've been terribly quiet on this group for some time, but thought I'd
throw my two bob's worth in regarding shipping from The States.

I buy a reasonable amount of stuff from The USA (we have two Cadillacs)
and know the horrifying cost of shipping using courier services such as
United Parcel Service (UPS) etc.  I always ask the shipper for Unites
States Postal Service (USPS) Priority for most smaller parts, and
shipping does not break the bank.  USPS is sometimes up to ten (YEP,
TEN) times cheaper than UPS.

regards, Terry

I¹ll look into it...
Trust me to decide on an ignition system that is not widely used in this

I dont know of any austrlian vehicles that had EDIS setups, but the EF
Falcon had EDIS built into the ECU it self so it still has the Trigger
wheel and pickup on the Crank, so if you are looking for a trigger for
MSnS-extra its a good place to look. Otherwiser there are a few mail
order places that will send you EDIS bits and pieces which came from
wreckers. I dont know any of these sites

Greetings all....

I do have a little experience with EFI, limited though it is.
I have successfully modified and fitted a Subaru SVX engine to a VW Kombi,
using a much modified Subaru EMS

My current project is a little different that most of what I've seen on this
group and I'm a member on other MS groups around the world.... But the value
of a local MS group is greatly attractive...

My project is this...

I have a 1960, one previous owner VW bug (factory) ragtop.
Now like all my cars, this one is modified.
This one will be a little more special than the last.
I'm building a 2276cc stroker engine for the old girl with all the usual
HiPo VW goodies. What makes this engine a little different is the intake.
It will be turbo charged and intercooled.
Together with the MS-II EMS it is hoped to be a little more drivable than
the last engine (though that engine is quick and reliable with over 200k
miles on it!). I'm just so tired of Dellorto Carbs!!!

I have purchased the EMS, harness and Relay Board kits, and am now in the
process of sourcing the ignition components, TB and related EFI bits....

The one thing that is giving me a little grief is the ignition system..

I'm looking at the EDIS-4 set-up, but I'm not sure if these systems are
available here in Oz.... I realise that FORD used this stuff on many of
their products worldwide, but did any come to Australia that would be
adaptable to the VW engine?

Anybody have a 'heads-up' on this gear?

I'm sure, as I go, Ill be asking more questions....
As always, it will be greatly appreciated to get an Australian angle on
these products...

Cheers,

I just bought my harness and relay board and the postage through the US Postal
Service (1 x
3.54lbs) (Global Express Mail (EMS) (3 - 5 Days)): $39.30 Shipping Insurance:
$2.40
And the postage for my MSII was about the same....

That was through DIYAutotune.com..... Great service... Highly recommend them...

I've no experience with this engine at all , but I'd think the Megasquirt
would be technically well able to run the engine , However the general
feeling within the main group with regard to aero engine application is
the it's a no-no , Probably due to the "drop/life at risk factor" if
something goes wrong ! , Ultra light MIGHT be less critical , but it's
still a strong consideration

I recently purchased a 1000cc 3Cyl G10A Suzuki Based Ultralight
Aircraft Engine from Poland. The engie has Camshaft mods, an
Electromic distributor, MPI - but NO ELECTRONICS - The Manufacturers
went broke before they perfected the ECU. The Engine has been Dyno
tested to 80HP.
Has anyone had any experience setting up a Megasquirt to suit a 3
Cylinder MPI engine?
An Aircraft Engine is not as demanding as a road car engine in that it
runs at more or less constant throttle setting.
Do you think a Megasquirt would be any good for this application?
Cheers Tom

Actually  the postage shouldn't be too bad , The US Post office have a
Global Priority Express Pre paid mailer system that allows you to send uo to
4 Lbs ( abt 1.5Kg ) anywhere in the world for between us$9-11 ( Depending on
the mailer size ), Normally takes about 5-8 days door to door !! ( Better
than some of my "so called" express packs form Coffs to Adelaide with
Australia Post  !!! Check out the US Postal sevice web site

I dont think there will be another aus group buy as stewart is now
living in japan (guy that organised the last few) so if anyone wants to
step up to the challenge, go for it

The good news is, u can order kits ready to go at decent prices from a
few DIY efi places in america, and with our dollar like it is its not
that expencive to buy em, postage will be a killer but if u split it up
b/w a few of yers it shouldnt be a problem (if anyone decides to go
ahead with this gimme a yell as im after a stim :P)

Check out msefi.com, in the traders section there is a list of all
people selling ready to go MS kits with everything you need, including
assembled ones and labeled looms

   you can use the coolant sensor as above ,     if you have a careful
hand and a small ...as in miniature... hacksaw or access to lathe
the brass tip [sleeve] can be parted off carefully to expose the epoxy
encased thermistor and use for IAT sensor.......both then are similar
files in EasyTherm........2.5Kohm @20c.......
   Juuuuust take the brass sleeve down to the epoxy.....maybe less than
0.5 mil and up to 10mil up from the tip.............works with

Found on VK, VN, XF, Camira, Volvo and others, or new from GM dealers.

After a lengthy delay I'm getting close to setting up my MS
controlled 202 in the next month or so.  The only things I still
need to get are air and water temp sensors.

I'm sure this has been answered a hundred times before but.....

What are the easiest to use air and water temp sensors available
commonly in Australia?  I was thinking there's probably some
standard Holden items that would do exactly what I want.  Part
numbers apprectiated.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Eddie. I don't want to use the Rover EFI, 1 because I already
have the Chev TBI (And it was cheap); 2, You have to make up spacers
to fit Rover manifolds as the P76 has a larger deck height; and 3, I
think it would look better with a normal Holley aircleaner.

Try joining at www.msefi.com, there is an aussie section there that
receives a bit more use than this group these days.

There is quite a bit of info available for use with the chevs TBI (on
chevs though) and there are a few squirted rangies out there, so
betweeen the 2 you should be laughing.

any reason why you wouldnt use the rovers efi?

Hi guys, I'm new to the message board here but I have a couple of
questions for you all. I built up my Megasquirt months ago and it
works on the bench with the stim. My plan is to fit a GM TBI with
5.7 injectors with an adapter to my 4.4L P76 motor (Yes IN a P76!).
I would be interested in hearing from others that have used the GM
TBI. Will I need to use a flyback board with this? Do you think the
5.7 injectors will be too big for my application? The motor has a
mild cam, headwork, extractors, Buick HEI dizzy etc.

Hi Dave

Since the Ford CFI injectors are low impeadance (1.4
Ohm), I run the full fly back circuit with fly back
damping (V3.0 software). I'm running two throttle
bodies, so I have 2 injectors per bank (0.7 Ohm). You
can run without the fly back add on PCB, but it's much
better with it. The important settings are in the
constants dialog. My current ones for Fly back damping
are as follows.

Injector Open Time = 1.3mS
Battery Voltage Correction = 0.1
PWM Current Limit = 30%
PWM Threshold = 1.0
No of Squirts per cycle = 8 Alternating

Without the fly back mods change "PWM Current Limit"
setting to 70%. If you are running only a single
throttle body, you shouldn't have any trouble with
your injector drive circuit overheating and may be
fine with the standard MS injector drive.

I flowed the injectors myself and came up with 56lb/hr
@ the nominal 15psi fuel pressure. You can adjust the
pressure reg to about 18psi to get 60lb/hr. It's
fiddly because you need to dismantle the regulator to
adjust it.
