Now, as for adding more injectors with the
MicroTech, will this still work? I know you can set it up for staged
injectors, but can you (easily, in flight, during an emergency) tell it to
disable a pair and make it up with the others? Maybe you can.
I don't know. I've always heard that the MicroTech was a nice unit,
but it's a car ECU, and I'm guessing it isn't designed with backup
features built in.
I haven’t seen anything that would
allow you to select which injectors to run on. As you say it does support “staged”
injectors so the 2nd pair kick in at higher RPM – but no fail
over capability. I ‘spose if I was real quick I could reprogram the staged pair
to kick in at a lower RPM – but in an emergency I think I’ll opt
for “fly-the-plane” versus programming J. If I were
going to set it up with 4 injectors I’d probably let the MicroTech think there were still only 2 and split the
injector wires. That way if one failed I’d at least be getting something
out of the rotor.
Thanx,
