[G3 to G4 update]

I have my G3 and considering the G4 firmware update. My questions are,

1. Is Auto Tune faster?

2. How do I get the firmware?

Thanks.

Hi Aiden,

What is your set up, first of all. Batch injection or sequential for instance? Ignition type?

Thank you Adamw, I'm into the G3.

No I haven't. I was too tired after work unfortunately. I cleaned out the CPU just now so it has some brain power back though. I see it there but last night no comms. Is the 32 Bit a concern as I only have 64 and 86 on my laptop.

 

[G3 Communication problem]

I tried today and found a 32 bit Link ecu in the Task Manager program alive and trying connect. I intend getting rid of all other apps on this tiny laptop, just so I can get good comms with my old ecu and all my days of work in it. Is my Old Dear G3 , still  able to deliver it's existing tune so I can update into a new Link or G4 platform, please? The tune was made from scratch with zero parameters. Thank you for your interest.

Wow! So what did you do? Did you use the spike after you fire the coil or at the long gap? Interesting stuff.

[G3 Communication problem]

Wow! Great news, thank you Adamw

. Will do. That helps me understand more about the issue. Link support is top class, that is why we should always buy Link products.

I found my tune from 2017 today so I might try communication with that. The car has been out of service over 6 years so maybe the older drivers and software will communicate better?

Thanks again.

What does windows device manager show in the comports section - any yellow exclamation marks in there?

Thanks again Adam. Device manager has shown the Link with exclamation mark. I am updating drivers now. Thank you.

miked, why not inject with the spark timing? Intake is closed then, fuel gets heated and vapourised ready to be pushed through the port when valve opens???

Strangely nothing Andrew. I believe I have a solution now, as I raided the ancient Toshiba for the "Holy Grail Hitachi" Hard Drive with my precious tune and drivers on it, for my old G3. I bought a flash drive and a HDD enclosure for the SATA drive from the 2009 Toshiba. Put Windows 7 in the new laptop and downloaded from the old HDD onto the new laptop and flash drive. I am pretty chuffed I got that far! Hopefully it will just connect as well as it always had. I want to update to G4 before I put the car back into use.

I think I am sussing it out. I will retrieve the files from the ancient laptop which worked well. New cable and clean comm port B male usb. Gee I hope I can get the mapping, it took me 1000 hours I reckon, from scratch.

Hello gang. I have owned my G3 for quite a few years an d am having trouble getting comms with it. Do I need to update drivers from the Link pages? It is pretty weird as the rest of the function in the car is faultless. Thanks

Thank you Simon. Message received.

Thanks,

I only want to run a V8 on wasted spark, semi or full sequential fuel. I want 1 or 2 knock inputs and a 4 wire IAC. Closed loop idle would be cool. Next weeks job, now!

Thank you for taking my question, Adam and Simon. I think the unit may have been updated too. Do these images help?

I think it is a G3 LP from the cables available on the website here. I suspect then I might be able to update this unit?

Sorry, Linkplus G2.

Hello everyone. I use a G3 which I have in a 1968 Peugeot 404. (2.2l Turbo). Recently I came across a very low use LinkPlus. It's set up for a 2JZ VVTi. Tune was good for 500 plus HP.  I don't have the Tuner cable for it  and would like to find out how I might remake or purchase one, please. This unit has come from a highly respected Dyno tuner here in Brisbane, Australia. I expect the tune to be one for standard equipment for the 2JZ VVti, if that is of interest.
