#2504, "MegaSquirt almost done, need imput from you guys."




          

OK. This is what I have done since I started the night before.

\

One thing I notice a lot is that everyones board is different. Some have things installed I dont, others dont... This goes for here, the neon guys and the 420A examples on the MSNS-E site.

So can one of you guys with the squirt working take a look at this and tell me anything... what I should have and dont, what I do and dont need and why.

I have been following the directions on the manual and from the msns-e site.

Notes: I just barely started the ign circuit for us so thats not there, most of the things that get mounted to the heatsink were left off because they sent me one made by a drunken monkey.

The things you see where other people have then and others dont are the optional components.

Optional componentents that are not reqd:
individual flyback circuit
VR ign circuit


My adcise is to install everything. Use the individual flyback circuit in case you ever upgrade to low impedance injectors. Build the VR circuit in case you follows Nate's input if you have tach spikes.

There will be a few components you dont install. Such as Cap 30/12. leave those out.

Leave out:
R57, do not put anything in its place
R12, board mods replace with resistor 1.3k-2k ohm
R43, you will need to jumper it for the IBT
D1 and D2 are left out and jumpered - board mods
Leave out the Diodes in the kit labeled Extra 1N4748ADICT-ND


These are considering the board Mods done already too.

but on the inst it says to not build the VR if you are using opto. Will having the parts there affect the reading?

I did put in the flyback in case, it mentions that it doesnt affect it either way.

D1 and D2 are already jumpered.
