We think Dennis H. has a corrupt A controller chip. = He inadvertently started the engine in Mode 4 and things went bad. The B co= ntroller is running normally so we have a good chip to work with. This is o= ne of the early big box EC2’s. Dennis and I worked a few hours trying to tune = the A controller. We reset Modes 1,3,4,6,8.multiple times.  Mode 2 is = to copy A to B and I don’t think Mode 5 and 7 are used according to t= he book. There may be an issues with the Programming Head. Sometimes we did managed to keep the engine running with the manual = mixture control. We noticed changes to the engine while cycling through the= program modes. On one attempt we managed to get Mode 3 adjusted at 19̶= 1; MP. We were then able to make adjustments in Mode 1 up until about 24” MP and the engine just stopped. We rest= arted the engine and we could not keep it running or make any Mode 1 adjust= ment that helped. .

 

We pulled the EC2 and Program Head for inspection. T= he Mode switch is a little sticky so we will use mine to on the next attemp= t. So any advice were to get a reasonable priced compatible 64-pin QFN prog= rammer? Dennis’s grandson will be the one copying the chip and said Microchip’s programmer was about $= 400.  We are looking for chips and may have located some at Microchip = direct.
