Early VW Link Pin Rebuild
In this video I am replacing the worn bushings in an early link/King pin VW. These have been reinforced with welded in gussets to make them stronger so they may look a bit different from your stock ones but the process is the same.

      @@wjones1972 thanks for quick replay, Will. Yes, well, some questions you asked yourself in the other video ;-) ruclips.net/video/2ty8RvaTWjM/видео.html First question is where you placed the "other end" of the map sensor. Somewhere at the intake manifold or carb body, i guess!? I watched some videos of the Speeduino, and found many information about the wiring just near the board, but only very little in the engine compartment, with all the sensors, fuel lines, ignition and so on. Especially the hardware solutions (tubes, lines, injectors, ..) of the fuel system is interessting for me. How did you weld it and fix the fuel injectors? Are the tubes for them 100% self made? At the moment i'm not sure if i convert a 34PICT carb engine or a 44IDE dual Weber. What about the idle stepper? How did you solve it in Hardware? I didn't find any information about "idle control" so far. Do you use an oxygen sensor, as well? Ah, and, what about software setup? Is it done with TunerStudio EFI? Thanks a lot in advance 🙂

    Simple trace will do a better job of any curved shape easily, instead of trying to freehand the shape, just make a serious of short straight lines. I have gotten a nice consistent curves on several projects this way, from a 12mm slot with a radius at the end, to creating corners with a neat radius and a rack curved to match my argon bottles.

    OK, I think I have found the problem, with no solution yet. Tuner studio reports low battery (12 volt) my battery is 12 volt, and there is 12 volts at the 12 volt unsoldered test ports on the board, TS says voltage is 2.3 though. So I will have to seek help on what component may be bad or that I may have soldered in wrong that is causing the 12 volts not to get from the onboard test port to the rest of the board. When I plug the board into just 12 volts, with no 5 volts from the USB, the board does fire up and make 5 volts, so the 12 volts is working, but where it goes from there on the board to where TS reads the voltage, it is 2.3 volts. Partial board failure.

    Heres another question you may or may not know , I saw there is an air fuel 1 and air fuel 2 and this piqued my interest.

I am going to see if I can find that out too. they would each share the same MAP sensor of course.

    Hey! I'm running a speeduino on my turbo setup as well with the exact same iac motor. Just using the cb performance machined block as the housing. Mine doesn't seem to do anything to help cranking, even with the steps at 70 or 80 during cranking and I have it set to idle at 1300 cold and work it's way down to 1000 at op temp. When im starting the car tho, i have to crack the throttle for it to start up cleanly. But when the car starts it idles at like 700 rpm then after 5-10s will jump up to the 1300. It's like the crank settings won't work and the run setting doesn't kick in til a few seconds after startup. Any idea what could cause that? My home steps are 249 and don't exceed 200 I believe.

I have a UA4C vc2 speeduino board which has a built in stepper motor driver, I currently have a 6 pin iacv on my throttle body and 2 middle wires are 12v (which are now cut off, since speeduino will be providing the power for the iacv) this is pretty munch the pinout for the iacv pins based on the DSM ecu pinout: A1 - 12v - A2 B2 - 12v - B1

    Hello again, question So, the 24 pin connector, it is the same or similar to the 24 pin on page 161 of the manual where it references the dropbear controller board. That manual section provides the pinout assigned to the 24 pin connector when using that board. Did you, by chance, use this pinout from the manual when you wired yours, even though one could wire it any way they desired. Just curious, If you used the "dropbear" standard, then so will I, if you did not, then I may also rebel and do as I wish :) (tonights the first night I even looked at the manual lol)

    • @wjones1972
      @wjones1972 Год назад

      I just used my own when I wired it up. I hadn't seen the dropbear when I came up with this one I ordered a case from aliexpress that I thought I could make work but it was to small so I just used the connector. I originally just soldered the wires to the connector and that works but isn't great so than I went to pcbway and made a small board to mount the connector and the wires to so it is more robust.

    Hi William, from my research, close loop on a none turbo with no AC and electrical draining systems kicking in and out is an overkill for an air cooled engine. If you are happy with your current open loop mode and setting, you’ve got yourself in a good place. If really wanting perfection with close loop, check Andy Whittle’s vid on “Basic Idle Control and Fixing a Rolling/Hunting Idle). I would also recommend checking out DCWrex video on how to get sequential timing and injection with an NO2C (which seems like a easy pin/code re-assignment), and ideal for your Type 1 since your already have the 7073 Micro Cam-Sync. Would you consider also posting/sharing your tables, as I would be very interested in starting my project with a proven tune that is very close to my own engine (2Ltr Type 2 Bay Window Bus with Porsche Head and Mild Cam)?

    • @wjones1972
      @wjones1972 2 года назад

      Glad it helped. To get your step time you can turn it down until you get missed steps. So for example with my engine warm I only need about 5 to 7 steps for 1000rpm but if it is missing steps it will go up to say 50 and still be idling slowly. So if it doesn't feel like it's responding correctly it could be missing steps. and the error tends to get bigger over time. Most of the time 3 or 4 ms is fine. but you can start higher and work your way down the only downfall to a large number is a slower responding valve.

      @@wjones1972 first of all, thanks very much for your almost instant response! so.. let me check if I got it. you are saying that once your engine is warm it needs 5 to 7 steps from the fully closed valve position. So, if by that time you change the step time to for example 1 ms (which is not big enough to make a move) and change "motor steps" to 50 (instead of 5-7) it won't make any difference. That means your step time is too low. Did I get it right?

      @@andrespareradeniz9797 Kind of yes don't focus on the number exactly. but if its missing steps it will count up or down depending on your valve config without changing idle much. but i think you have the idea when it is trying to correct the engine speed if the steps are to short the commanded steps will change without the valve changing much. I think the main concept to keep in mind is it doesnt know where the actual valve position is it tries to know where it is by keeping track of the steps it commands so if its missing steps the valve will be in a very different position from what it expects or shows.

    Thanks for this. I want to start by using one of these for timing control on my Vintage Race Motorcycle. I figure it is a good way for me to get started on something pretty simple. Your vid layed it all out real well.

      @@wjones1972 Soo i have Subaru Ignition Coil (4way) and i don't know if should i take jumper to 5v or to 12v or run it without. And if i have VR conditioner i only plug it in or should i connect it to 1-40 pins? What is idle stepper and PWM idle pin?

      @@aleksantoniak5448 your coil will need to be a smart coil meaning it has to have a driver built in. you will provide 12 volts from key on and ground to the driver and then signal wires to the speeduino are ground trigger normally. if you are using a vr sensor you will need a conditioner installed and set the jumpers correctly it doesn't need any other wiring. stepper idle or pwn idle are different ways of adjusting the amount of air bypassing the throttle to adjust idle for example during engine warmup.

    I take it you didn’t do the other welding on this buggy. Your tig welds look good. The other welds on this rig look like it was someone’s first time welding.

    Mr. Jones, Thank you very much for this and your videos in general. You have answered many outstanding questions that have plagued me. I have my type 1 2180 running now injected on propane and wasted spark. I'm attempting to modify the code to support dual fuel and advance maps toggled from a switch and an unused input on the Mega thru the daughter board. Again, Thanks! Great work.

    Hi William. In another video I commented about the mexican VW Bug / Beetle fuel injected. Your project is awesome. There is a throttle body with TPS and IAT incorporated. The idle is controlled with a PWM ralenti valve like ford valve. it has 2 cable, is not a stepper motor. The NTC is on left head. I think it is a 4 wire sensor. I hope this information can be useful for you. The fuel pressure is regulated for a vaccum mechanical regulator. The ECU has an internal MAP sensor with a light green thin and long pipe until inlet manifold. The original FI VW bug had one coil installed on fire wall. The coil is a 3 wire coil.

      Thanks I have seen the Mexican system I even have a few parts from one. But I was looking for more performance form some salvage yard parts and the ECU I assembled I modified the Webber carb I already had and the idle motor was a learning adventure in Stepper motor workings. I know there are a lot of options to make one work I make one work I just wanted to document my project. I am working on a similar conversion to a 1974 thing this weekend.

      I am using a crank trigger from THEDUPSHOP.com and a cam SYNC from CBPerformance. but you really don't need the cam SYNC for it to work well. I am running batch fire so it doesn't need the cam sync.

      In Mexico the last bug generation comes with Euro III EFI. It is a first generation EFI and trigger is performed by a distribuitor with hall sensor. The FI is not sequential is simultaneus. 2 squirts by a complete otto's cycle. Regards from Mexico..
