Phantom of the Opera
I had a loose wire come apart long time ago on my DPFI batch fire 350, and so the effect was the car ran fairly decently at freeway speeds...but raggedy as hell, even worse than it was normally .....
well now that all the crap is sorted out and I"m getting decent enough fuel economy...I wonder about an experiment of wiring the injectors to fire the original Bendix pattern of 7218 and then 3465 and so to even out the thrust on the crank....maybe re do it to 7834 and so forth....
what I"m trying to do is save gas......but not damage the engine....
one of the tricks to get fuel economy is to alternate fire injectors under light load cruise, or even moderate acceleration...
so IF, I can put in a kill switch for FOUR of the cylinders in my batch fire system, and externally trigger it off say manifold pressure and a comparator circuit...(electronic switch to enable or kill the cylinders) I wonder about that as being effective for fuel economy without killing the engine mechanically....
now I know the O2 sensor is in the pass side only....so maybe I have to kill only the driver's bank, and see what happens.....that way the O2 is happy....
any thoughts??? wonder about just faking the O2 input to the computer?? assuming the engine really objects to killing the driver's bank injectors???
