3. Using needle-nose pliers, pull the terminal the rest
of the way into the connector. You should feel the
terminal lock into place (you will feel a slight
“pop”). The rubber seal should be flush with the
end of the connector. Use care to not gouge the
terminals.
4. If a terminal must be removed, use pliers to carefully
push the terminal out of the connector. The terminal
can usually be re-inserted one more time. Don’t do this
unless absolutely necessary! The terminal tabs need to
be pried up slightly before re-inserting. See photo of
terminal at right for tab location. Use a 1.2mm or
0.050” jeweler’s screwdriver to pry with. Check to be
sure that the wire can resist a slight tug without coming
out.
I. Theory of Operation:
The Boondocker Control Box connects between the sled’s ECU (Electronic Control Unit) and the fuel injectors. It does
not reprogram or communicate with the ECU. It only modifies the existing signals sent from the ECU to the fuel injectors.
By modifying only these signals, it is possible to make fuel changes while keeping the stock fuel map. This means the
ECU can still compensate for engine speed, throttle position, barometric pressure, engine temperature, air temperature, etc.
The Control Box can reduce fuel or increase fuel amounts for certain rpm ranges and load conditions. This is done by
changing its fuel adjustment settings by using the buttons and LCD display. As with tuning a carburetor, it is possible to
go too rich or too lean!
Note: Be sure you know how to properly tune an engine before you adjust the fuel settings! Use of EGTs and plug and
piston readings are highly recommended when tuning.
