its scary to buy a micro tech they dont start in the cold
why spend so much money and they dont even start in the cold
there should be a parameter for cold climates |
there is.... its called water and air temp correction maps. i have never had a problem starting my car in freezing weather.
|
lol
|
do you have a pic of it..i cant find it

there should be a parameter for cold climates Microtechs have a cold cranking map and air/water timing/fuel temperature correction maps like any other ECU. They also have afterstart enrichment like all other ECUs. Where are you getting this misinformation? |
It has been in the 20s all week long and my car starts right up and is not even 100% tuned.
Water map and Air temp map adjust them maybe you are not getting enough fuel or getting to much. |
it came with the car my brother bought ..we tried googling it but we have no info ...it started before when we had 50degree whether ...now it dont
|
get it tuned then.

The process is the same regardless of the ECU used. Even if it is something as archaic as the Microtech. |
i read the manual i cant find the cold cranking
|
did you read the manual???? i posted a link to it a few posts up. the cranking,air temp and water temp correction map are on page 19 of the pdf file and are screens 20,21, and 22 in the computer.
|
thanks so much...i know ill have to have my tuner set it up
but can you share your setting to give an idea ,,,i now every car is differant |
injector sizes influences alot also like you say every engine its different.
|
theres a walboro fuel pump ...2 1000cc 2-720cc, a bnr stage 2 turbo..
|
I'm sure its not the Microtech. My car started today (also in the 20s)
|
I had the same problem on my lt-8, but didn't even have a chance to tackle the problem because my car got stolen lol.
My brother has the lt-8s and he dd's it. It was in the 30's in riverside a couple weeks ago and his car starts up fine. |
it basically a surprise when my brother bought the car and the seller did not say there was a micotech in there ..we have no clue on microtech ..so we tried to do some research but still could not get the car to start in the cold
so now we have the manual we just dont understand where we should start we have a tuner t&r but they do haltech all we need is a map to get it started or some base parameters to go by and adjust accordingly |
where in ct you are located.
|
What happens when you try to start the car?
Does it crank forever and not catch? Does it start and then immediately stall? Please describe in detail what the issue is and we can suggest settings to change. |
