East Coast Supercharging ECS Alky 5th Gen - Manual (Page 18)

Adding gain to the knob(clockwise) increases pump pressure output. If the knock is
occurring due to transitional, increasing initial pump speed or decreasing turn-on point
will aid these conditions. Again every vehicle is different, the initial and turn-on will
more than likely never be recalibrated once system is setup. They will not correct a
tuning problem and/or engine fault.
Timing suggestions, Low timing and high boost. Setting up the fueling, timing, coupled
with the alcohol output requires time and patience. Do small steps at a time and enjoy the
product and its technology.
The pump features an allen screw to adjust pressure activation. Every vehicle is different,
as will be the setting of this screw. Suggestion is to have it sense pressure early on. If
there ever is an issue with the system(empty tank, tank leak, clogged feed line, etc) this
will advise of a problem. Although it can be set to activate under higher pressures. This
is a personal preference. And the brown wire can be used for triggering boost controllers
as well. No pressure=no Hi Boost
TIPS
On applications like the Buick Grand National, I wire a 12 volt bulb across the pump
output terminals ( +, - ) . This allows me to see the bulb brightness increase as the boost
level increases. And light dimly when the initial pushbutton is depressed. Other options
are the use of an electric pressure gauge (optional) or mechanical pressure gauge
(optional) to setup pressure. It is not needed, but can be handy for initially setting up
controls. Other options are the use of a voltmeter across those terminals.
Most if not all street applications, once the knobs are set, they rarely get changed. Minor
changes to the gain knob is all that will usually be required. Keep an eye on the road at all
times…and if an unreasonable amount of knock is encountered, take your foot of the
pedal and diagnose problem.
