Subject: [FlyRotary] Injectors not firing

 

I wonder if = anyone out there can shed any light on the following.

 

I installed the = EM2 and now I have no attempt to fire. The plugs are dry after 5 mins cranking. = I have good spark on leading and trailing plugs, there's fuel at the rail, good = fuel pressure, and 12V at the injectors.  I haven't changed the injector = wiring except to tie in the EM2 injector sensor wire.

 

Any = ideas?

That’s = a tough one to diagnose.  If the wiring is correct, one wouldn’t = expect connection of the EM2 to have any effect on injector firing.  The = lead to the EM2 from EC2 is just a serial data feed.

First check = that you have the injector switched on J.  Check ground connections, especially the EC2 ground pin.  I’ve never tried this; but I’m told that a = regular timing light will flash using an inductive pickup on the injector = lead.  Maybe you find out if the pulse is getting there.

Good = luck.
