Good weather!!!! Its been pissing down with rain EVERY SINGLE DAY for over a month now. Surely you can do something about that Ashley

Hey we have ordered...!!! No more sissy MAPs..............haha Next on the wishlist? CLL for the LinkPlus G2 and G3 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah you have a point there, maybe we should look into making up some header looms......The main problems about the cossies is that the oe engine looms and various plugs are often very deterioated combined with the fact that they are (exept for the latest T25 Escorts) distributor based....so that means stripping off and replacing everything anyway..... Very interesting about the 5bar option, what do you consider to be bulk? Thanks alot for bringing this up Ashley.Â

In Triggersetup, PCLink there is a setup listed for RS500/Cosworth. Is this for untouched standard setup on these cars, ie 4 points on crank and two points in distributor? Tor

I will try to have a car mapped very shortly to see if it will pass, but as the cars are tested for lambda function (the tester will observe the lambda value and check that it is working properly) im afraid it will prove to be a problem....... You know, fitting a non-cat aftermarket exhaust is one thing, because it is easy to refit the standard one in time for the EC test, its a bit more tricky to replace the whole management system.........

Ashley, thanks for your reply. I do not miss CLL for tuning purposes, but for emission purposes. Over here in Norway (and all other EC countries) all cars produced from 1989 an onward needs to comply with a CO level of 0,5% or lower. All cars older than 4 yrs are called in every 2 years for emissoin checks. That is why we miss the CLL function. Cars are checked for CO and for lambda correction at idle and raised idle, and without one I`m afraid we`re kinda screwed...... Regarding the MAP issue, I`confident that your product will be far more attractive to a greater amount of customers than it already is......Go for it, put in a 3 or 4 bar jobbie!!!!!

Well it certainly seems you have a trigger problem, I wouldnt be surprised if it has something to do with the trigger setup.... Just a thought: If there are 24 teeth, and one missing, it would be 25-1, right? Not 24-1? Like on the Ford Zetecs, they are 36-1, so when tou count the actual teeth (or holes in the flywheel), there are only 35 of them.....

Sorry..... is the correct firing order for your engine? The symptoms you describe suggests its wrong......

Jason, did you choose the correct type of triggering in the trigger setup menu? And are you sure that 4213

I remember having problems getting a trigger signal on the G2, the car we put the G2 into was a late-model T-25 Escort Cosworth, which is the only cossie model running 36-1 triggering at the crank. I first tried to run 2 pickup points at the crank, as I would do on older cossies using a standard Weber Marelli inductive TDC sensor. It wouldnt give a reading. I then hooked up the OE inductive pickup on the 36-1 wheel and then I had a reading instantly........strange. The problem with using this pickup was that I couldnt move the sensor around to get the base timing right, so it ended with me having to remove the woodruff key on the crank, and moving the pulley itself around to obtain the correct timing. I then applied LockTite bearing glue on the crank and fixed it in the correct position. The car ended up a complete stunner, it goes like shit off a shovel, I guess its got around 350bhp @ 1,5 bars of boost and runs 10 times smoother than it did on the OE Ford EECIV management. So could your problem be the trigger pickups? Do you see any triggering take place in PCLink? If you dont, try another type of sensor, that worked for me on the Escort.... Or could your problem lie in the ignition department, if your ignitor(s) arent working you wouldnt get a spark for the timing light to flash off....... Just some thoughts.... Tor

1) Can the DisplayLink be set up to show vehicle speed, and thereby be used as a complete dash display? 2) Why is there no Closed Loop Lambda on the LinkPlus G2? Will an upgrade ever be released? 3) Will wideband lambda values show up in PCLink when tuning the LEM G3? It doesn`t on LinkPlus G2. It would be great to have all relevant tuning values in one place (on the laptop screen) instead of using a separate WB display. 4) The LEM G3 will certainly become a big hit, but why limit MAP to "only" 1,5 bars of boost like the older models? In Norway there is a very big Cosworth scene, and this limitation is very bad keeping in mind that very many owners run their cars at 1,6-2 bars. I believe the LEM G3 would cause a big stir over here considering value for money if it could only sport a 3 or 4 bar map sensor......Yes I know a LinkPlus will do the job nicely, but in its price range there is ample competition between other top brands.

I had this problem the first time I was going to install a customer`s G2....I was using a laptop with USB only, so I had to use an USB-serial converter. The problem was as simple as me forgetting to assign the correct USB output on the laptop....... Tor Racefix Motorsport Norway
