Hello
I am currently setting up an AU engine in a speedway car.
It runs a manual trans, and i havent done the resistor trick yet, but it fires up easy, idle's great, and pulls like a train, but gets on the rev limiter at around 4500 rpm. which is dissapointing to say the least.
Anyone have any idea why this may be?? is it simply the lack of resistors for the gear pos??

Cheers
David

might need a j3 chip or a resist mod to do it. i think it might be in LHM

Hello
I'm trying to resistor trick the ECU, and with the normal 2 resistors (temp and Gear pos) it seems to have lost all advance.
Having spoken to a few people, it seems that the tickford ECUs especially (adaptive shift BS) dont like not having no solenoid values. (i read something similar in the 5.0lt manual conversion bit too)

I need to confirm the values and placement of the resistors needed.

AU 6cyl ECU
Pin 1 - shift sol 2
Pin 27 - shift Sol 1
Pin 28 Shift sol 4
Pin 37 - Trans temp (1.2K)
Pin 53 - Shift sol 3
Pin 64 - Gear Pos (6.8K)
Pin 81 - S5 solenoid
Pin94 - Sol 6
Pin 96 - Sol 7

Problem i'm having, is that i am unsure where the other ends of the solenoid resistors go, or if the I6 auto has the same values as the V8 auto. (either way, i need to confirm values of resistors)

Cheers
David
