Engine Enable Throttle Position Threshold

Post by dr_jones »

Hi - Am I right in thinking I can use "Engine Enable Throttle Position Threshold" under 'Starting' to help clear a flood / engine flooded situation?

Ie I set to say 75% and so when the throttle is floored the Engine becomes not Enabled so the injectors cease to fire?

Cheers,

-Ed.

Actually now I look at it this function (clearing engine during cranking) is controlled by the base fuel injection table under 'starting' - so now I'm a little unclear of why you'd need the 'Engine Enable Throttle Position Threshold' table at all.

Engine Enable relates to more than just fuel injection. So whilst it is true that you can have a flood clearing feature by setting the base fuel down to zero at higher TPS in the starting map, what you cannot do is to prevent the pre-injection pulse nor can you prevent sparks from happening. When the engine is disabled, it means that other actions are also disabled.

Hope this helps,

Pat.
