  1. Ok, we will give all of those a try, including bumping base timing up to around 23 at idle. We were going for ultra-conservative on the timing to start so as to avoid any detonation, but maybe we're causing ourselves some trouble in the timing table as well. Thank you for help, and any additional observations are greatly appreciated!
  2. It's up in post #10 combined with the datalog in the zipfile. Thanks for looking -- we need all of the help we can get on this one...
  3. I don't think that we set up the overboost limit, so I assumed that 0 disabled that function as in many other places in megatune. Do you think that this might be the root cause -- spark being cut right out of the gate and fuel being dumped into the exhaust, then ignited once the spark resumes?
  4. I have attached it with the datalog in a zipfile in post #10 of this thread. I have all of the files from Jacob's config on my laptop, so let me know if there is anything else that might be of use.
  5. Yeah, he's jumping off the throttle as soon as the stumble happens to avoid the big KA-BOOM. Probably wise, as that just can't be good for the turbocharger...
  6. slown280z -- I helped Jacob reprogram his LC-1 prior to this run (and log), which was required as one of the analog inputs (the one feeding megasquirt) had been set as a narrowband output. All is good there now, and it is logging nicely to the file. After the change the cockpit gauge agrees with what the megasquirt is reporting now. Thanks!
  7. Attached are the datalog and .msq files Jacob used tonight. The O2 sensor is an Innovate LC-1. Thanks for whatever assistance you can provide him. [EDIT] Ended up with a zero-length .msq in the previous zipfile. It is corrected here. datalog200904272016.zip
  8. Did you guys totally start over? This looks like a new rebuild, not a refresh. Great work!
  9. Hello everyone, Looking for a new one. Good condition with no bends, kinks, nicks, etc please. Thanks!
  10. $1.44 in Nebraska as of 12/17/2008. Of course, it takes 5 hours to fuel a zcar due to the 90 below zero weather and polar bears attacking you while you shovel the "gas-gel" into the fuel tank...
  11. 1973 240Z L24, 16x8" SSR 513s, R180, 4 spd, My Fat Ass, otherwise stock: 2350lbs
  12. Yikes! Another zcar dead at the hand of the torch. Wouldn't a tube frame and fiberglass have served better? ...I wonder how much you can pick up one of those awesome flared out 240z sorta-scarab clones with super-cool custom brown/yellow/tan striped paint and wings that were so popular in the '70s for these days -- oh wait, they've all been crushed... Whoops, sorry... *stodgy old guy*...
  13. Hmm, I wouldn't go driving to California (or a racetrack) on that critter... Maybe think about AAA until you check the bottom. I'd pop it apart for sanity's sake, and finding parts for these isn't cheap if it goes wrong. Then again it might be my OCD kicking in too... j
