DShox Posted January 10, 2006 Author Share Posted January 10, 2006 sorry those last few posts lost me. whats a Closed Loop Function on a car - sort of have an idea from my Chem Eng uni days. if the stock settings try and fight against it is there some internal engine knackering going on?

Guest Terry S Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 The ecu is programmed with a target Air Fuel Ratio, normally Stoich ( 14.7) for cruising etc. This target is enabled under certain load conditions ( cruise, partial throttle openings etc) to aid economy, and works in conjunction with the stock o2 sensor. This condition is called closed loop control ( CLC) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DShox Posted January 10, 2006 Author Share Posted January 10, 2006 how much does it cost to get my car made eco (ahem) friendly? i guess i set the speed at which i want it to cruise on the motorway i.e. if i drive at 90mph generally does the setup make 90mph the most economic speed without causing engine damage or dropping off ounces of performance?

TLicense Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I'm getting about 7.5miles/gallon at the moment, but then again I have got fuel pissing into the engine bay at the connector to the fuel rail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
