Initial Calibration
Before attempting to start the engine the calibration tables should be
initialised to sensible values.
Use the MoTeC E.M.P. Software to initialise the ECU calibration tables.
Preferably start with a calibration file from a similar engine as this will make
initial calibration faster and easier.
Graph the tables so that any unusual points can be easily identified (Press
the G key).
Clear any *s from the tables by selecting Clear *s from the E.M.P. Software
Function Menu (Press the F9 key). The *s indicate values that have been set
correctly, which is inappropriate at this stage.
Fuel Tables
Fuel - Main Table
Check the Fuel - Main Table.
The table should be smooth.
In general turbo tables look quite different from throttle position tables, so it is
wise to start with a table from a similar engine.
Fuel - Air Temp
Check the Fuel - Air Temp compensation table (Advanced Tuning only).
Typically the following table can be used :
-40 -30 -20 -10 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80+
10 9 8 6 4 2 0 -2 -4 -6 -8 -10 -12
Fuel - Engine Temp
The Fuel - Engine Temp compensation table may be used instead of the cold
start warm up parameter (Advanced Tuning only).
