1982 SC with EFI ITB doesn`t start
Well, it is time to ask proper community for an advice I reckon.
Long story short - 1982 SC with Triumph 675r throttle bodies and EFI. Quite common things this days so nothing really spectacular here. The problem is - she doesn`t start. Working with this: EMS EM-80 ECU (Ozzie company) AEM EPM for the signals COP Main load - TPS Wanna go sequential injection with wasted spark. But for now batched fire will do. Firing order set to ignition ch.1 for 1-4 cyl, ign. ch. 2 for 3-6 cyl, ch. 3 for 2-5 Timing light shows TDC withing 5 degrees. All the plugs give fire. But she still doesn`t start. Gentlemen, let me know what you think cos I`m ran out of ideas. I`m frustrated. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kdhvlmJOcMM |
If the plug are firing, you are probably missing the fuel.

I am somewhat experience with EFI systems, but not familiar with the EM-80. However, if i can review your datalog file, I may be able to help. What software program are you using for data-logging? If you have a datalog file and i can download the logging software, i will review your log file and see if i can spot the problem.
regards, al PS: It's weird, but it appears that your throttle bodies are moving/jumping every time there is a backfire through the intake...like they are loose and not bolted down. If so...that would be a massive vacuum leak. |

Resembles timing being 180 degrees off.

Is this a new installation? Do you have a schematic of your set up? |
Definitely a timing issue. Send Al your logs he'll figure it out.

Anyway, tb's are bolted on a rubbber adapters and they are a bit flexible. But I will tighten the bolts for sure. Vaccuum leaks do exist through the tbs vacuum nipples I don't use. But on this stage I reckon it doesn't matter. The goal is to start her and fix the rest knowing she's alright. I will try to figure out how to use a logger. Have to check memory card in theECU might happen there ar plenty if logs. Btw, I have tried to move the ignition to 180 degrees and seemd like the engine struggled a bit less. |

And again, this is not vital for wasted spark I believe. |
Thanx guys for giving an idea of what to do with the timing. You kjchristopher and Al were right. She was almost 180 degrees off. Fixed that and all the vacuum leakis through the vacuum valves and she has started.
And the 6-th cylinder tb a bit loose on the adapter, will make it tight. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oia3v7hQm6o if you`re interested :) The happiest day of a year so far :))) |
Great, on to the next project...

sounds like it is actually running pretty good. Now, as you proceed to fine tune.....datalog and review....make changes..one at a time...datalog and review...make changes...one at a time....datalog and review.....I think you see where this is going...........
