Having S-AFC problems need your help
 
I was starting to run lean in 3rd gear and up so I put in my S-AFC and now it runs even leaner and the bitch of it is ever time I shut off the car the S-AFC loses all the settings and I have to sit there and set it up all over again. I hooked it up like it said in the vehicle specfic book so what's up is the guide wrong?(power wire is black with white strip right?) Here are the settings I am using Flap 6in 6out, 4cylinder arrow up, low setting 60% high 80%, I start at 8000rpm @+10% and go down 1% ever 1000 same thing for low but start at 7%. Now here is what is up with my fuel problem when I am getting in to it second gear and up at 4000rpm or so it goes off the scale lean but if I back out of it and get back in it it goes back up to mid stocih on the autometer. Also I will get a wiff of gas and no it isn't the pulse damper already checked that. I have some 720cc secondaries for it but I lack the know how to put them in. (throttle body looks like a bitch). Here are my current mods to help:
racing beat turbo back exhaust
racing beat fuel cut
bonez intake
S-AFC
mazdatrix short throw
greddy turbo timer
walbro fuel pump
boost gauge
A/F gauge
RAM power grip clutch (don't buy one they suck big time)

best 1/4 mile so far 13.8@101.5mph (that was with clutch slipping like crazy)

Sorry for being so long please I need your help I can't get through to rx7store where I bought it

what year is your car? I own a 88 Turbo II and if I remember right with my SAFC it was set to flap, and number 5 setting.....

JohnL 04-23-02 02:19 PM

also, you must have some wiring problems because the SAFC should not loose the memory settings.... re check your wiring

I have a 91' sorry forgot that

turbotwista 04-23-02 02:23 PM

I did like 5 times also the rpm is off a little I thought that maybe it was my tach that is off but from a search it sounds like I have a bunk S-AFC

Well I found the problem. It was me operator error. Guess I should start reading instructions more often.

fuel system!!!
 
If you have an 91 turbo, you have the better wastegate, I only see 10-11 psi on a very cold night. I have my afc only tuned down before the secondaries come in. I do not have it turned up after 4,500 rpms. and I still read rich @11 psi on a cold night under full throttle with the stock fuel system.

There is something wrong with your fuel system. If you have to turn your afc up 10%, 9 % 8% of something like that, there is something wrong. Your going to fry your injectors running 7-10% more fuel.

I would try and get those 720 cc and check the voltage to your fuel pump. Probably get it prof. tuned.

wow, so the highest psi on a series 5 turbo would be 11psi and thats at wot!

Do a search with my user name.... and S-AFC as the topic.
I have a few wiring fixes that totally solved my problems.... my car would barely run.... and I had to lean it out 40-50% to get it to run OK... then when it warmed up it would need -20% to run.... it was messed... the RPM was a few hunded off too.
It's all fixed now.
I found that I lost settings one time- but that was all... I -THINK- that you may have to exit the settings menu- and go back to the main menu for the new settings to stay in once you turn the car off....

Just wondering what your SAFC settings are? How rich are you running your settings??
