I assume what Bill and Ed mean here is: If you disable the
primary injectors, the secondary injectors (if enabled) will remain operable,
even below the staging point – they won’t be automatically turned
on. This is not actually mentioned in the manual, though does make sense.
|
I do not have the DPDT switches but rather have separate PRI
and SEC power switches plus the Cold Start switch.
To test the above feature (which I have not) I would have to
first ensure that the Cold Start switch is ON … right now if I
disable the PRI-only below staging point, my engine quits.

Chris,
When you shut
off the primaries, the secondary's are automatically turned on.

Hi
Chris,
Just wanted
to mention that when you used the "Injector Disable" switch to
turn off the
primary injectors - the EC2 will then automatically turn on the
secondary
injectors regardless of whether you are above or below the staging
point. They
in effect become your primary injectors. This is assuming you
have the
injector switches wired per Tracy's recommendation and of course
the
"disable" switch is ON for your secondary injectors.
So assuming
your EC2 is set up properly the engine should idle on either
pair (with
perhaps some minor tweaking of the mixture control).
