this ECU is like a 1980s feedback carburetor system. the gross engine control is still manual but the fine tuning and some emissions over-riding is ECU managed. Very impressive. ❤ (especially if it is more reliable than 1980s emissions equipment 😂)
Don't care about how far you have changed things , ocd , you have not been putting out vids every week, was a Sunday thing, now I don't care what the car does,,,,
Was hoping someone from the family would have updated via the comments section by now. I've done some Google search, his piece of pie in Kansas doesn't seem to have been affected by any tornados or random acts of God. He's like an old friend (being a Michigander myself) and the mid-westerner in my wants to make the drive out there and make sure he's ok.
Hello Jimbo; with regard to the viewer analytics, I think you're right. I'm a "nuts and bolts" guy and I confess that I find these software episodes far harder to understand than the mechanical ones - but then, they're commensurately more rewarding, too! I would never have guessed how deeply satisfied I could be by watching the footage of the car accelerating so cleanly, smug in the knowledge that I appreciate all the resourcefulness and work that went into your achievement! Those guys who bailed because they were confused will miss out on that. And, yeah, I suppose it is summer.
The cool part of it being electronically tuned is that you can record all adjustments and review them later instead of having to remember what you did and write it down. Plus it is more real time to us because the changes are instant, we don't have to wait for you to get back to the house to retest over and over. I'm liking the electronics episodes.
I greatly appreciate your efforts to minimize the "rolling coal". So many diesel modification channels here are basically a dick measuring contest of just how much coal they can get their truck to belch.
Hey Jimbo! Don't get too caught up in the analytics, TH-cam is a fickle beast and you'll drive yourself mad trying to appease it. Just keep doing what makes you happy and have fun :) Enjoy your vacation, I'm looking forward to seeing the next update in a couple weeks
Hello Jimbo!! Yes!! This video was awesome. I love data, tweaks, and comparisons. NO!!! You didn't lose us! The true gear and tech heads are still here!! This project is going great. It's very interesting and inspiring to see how adjustments mechanically and code-wise make differences. Keep it up! Oh, and a special thanks to Duke in the chase car. It's always nice to have some help from a brother.
I absolutely agree with you 107%! Thank you Jimbo, and thank you lewistasso for pubbing this comment! Sincerely, Alicia from Sweden. (Still part of the metric crowd)
Yes indeed, None of us went anywhere! I'm still eagerly awaiting to see this project in it's final form, and It's specifically the electronics tech that I'm most interested in. Because I know next to nothing about programming..
Happy Father's Day! The channel is "Robot Cantina" so I fully expect that there will be electronics. It's a big reason why I watch this channel. Keep up the good work! You inspire me to continue thinking about the electronics projects I want to get started.
Same here. I watch ALL of it. I'm here for all the stuff, even the stuff that's a bit over my head (the programming/software. I get what it's doing but how it does it is beyond me 😂
Mentioned on a tuner forum I use - "the more you know about electronic fuel injection, the less it costs". 🙂 I have some micro-controller based projects in mind myself and have been learning to code in sketch and C, all of it is new to me, so seeing it used in real world examples is right in my wheel house at the moment. Being able to follow what you're doing is gold, and you are welcome to just keep bringing it. Those who didn't find it interesting before may grow an interest...once they see how it can be used. Thanks for what you do here and enjoy your vacation!
Happy Father’s Day, I like this content too. Side note if you want or need help making a PCB with everything on one board let me know, would love to help the Diesel Insight Project! Lol
I'm with you-an unexpected outcome is exciting, because that means we have missed something-or figured something wrong-and have an opportunity to learn something new. Maybe even an entirely new variable we knew nothing about. Keep it shiny side up!
@@Thindoublechinsame here! With a cup of coffee it's like Saturday morning cartoons, but for nerds 😂 I love the community here too. You can't beat these comment sections compared to the rest of YT
Haha, the arduino part was the part that I was looking for. I have been tweeking my heatpump with arduino to make it slightly more efficient. Controlling the pressure/rpm, and expansion valve online...
Happy Sunday Folks! Coding, data and improving things digitally is your passion and we don't mind the episodes getting a little nerdy. We just want to see the world's fastest lawnmower diesel powered Honda insight ripping the streets of rural Kansas.
Okay here's the thing, everyone will agree that a '32 ford with a sbc in it, all tricked out is a hot rod. But what you're doing here is under the same umbrella and it's a good thing that's fresh and different, showing that indeed many good things are possible.
Hi here is the problem 80% of us don't understand even 1% of the electronics so we all switch off nuts and bolts we do understand love the videos thanks
90% of what he's done to control the fueling with electronics could have been done mechanically with an LDA. Just like Bosch did decades ago on the P pump.
I personally don't care what content you produce, it's all pretty golden, and with the schedule you release videos at, I can throw it on and throw my phone on the instrument cluster of my car and listen and every now and then glance at the screen on my way to work on Sundays, so to me, it's perfect, you do you, take a breather, relax, the crowd truely committed will be here, (waiting for the next Garden Gnome takeover 😂)
Nice video and great progress. The electronic stuff goes usually over my head, but I still enjoy watching it. My hope is that some chunks will get caught in the strainer that acts as my brain. Enjoy your vacation and I will be here when you get back.
As someone who has built there own car by hand ,and have it running off a arduino based ecu myself .. I personally love all of these vids you put out .. knowledge is power and if people would actually take the time to learn stuff then they would understand .. but everyone has there preferences I recon .. personally if I can be tought something , it peaks my interests ... so I love this, and tbh I wish you went further into coding aswell 😅 . . But anyways much respect to ya brotha Jim and happy fathers day to ya , and all my fellow fathers out there .. peace and love all keep it rad, stay safe, and build on.. l8z famz and keep having fun... ps have a good vacation jimbo as I will be eagerly awaiting your return .. 🤘🏽✌🏾
The electronics, code and general nerdiness are what makes your channel great. This is waaay out of the box and can't be found on any other car channel. Just keep doing what you're doing and the audience will find you.
Happy fathers day jimbobs btw cantina could u do an engine overhaul to see how the little 3 cyl is dealing with boost and to clean out all the gunk n stuff from the engine and possibly insert better internals for MOOOR POWAAA
Kudos to your brother for following you driving and being your observer for black smoke. I enjoy every episode. I am a network tech and code and figures are always nice to see.
I am enjoying the electronics videos. I’m a long time automotive and diesel tech who now does work on much larger industrial power sets and am responsible for making adjustments and modifications to those power sets programming to maintain automated operation so I’m all ears. And enjoy your approach and presentation.
I’ve been thinking about why this channel “works for me”. - First of all its simply entertaining. - Your channel combines several of my younger self passions (being a motor head, electronics, computers, and just making stuff to see if I could do it). - You explain difficult subjects with clear to understand “Midwestern dialect”. (I was really wondering how you were going to pull off explaining interrupt processing, but you did it well.) - The pictograms and simple explanation help us to visualize new concepts. Not everyone has a mech-e or computer science background. So pictures help greatly. - Your approach to the channel is much like just a couple of guys hanging out in the garage trying out different ideas, some work and some not so much. If everything worked the first time, what would we have learned? As for channel statistics, while you need to keep an eye on them for the health of the channel, I wouldn’t focus on them too much. Make what you enjoy and they will come. (edit: I tried to make a weak field of dreams reference, but I just looked it up and that was Iowa not Kansas. If it worked the first time, what did I just learn?)
TH-cam provides excellent channel statistics, I keep an eye on my numbers because at 150K subscribers I should be generating a certain amount of revenue. I try different types of videos to see which one brings in the most revenue. Keep in mind this channel dosn't generate a lot of revenue to begin with.. Sadly the tech stuff has cut my already tiny revenue stream in half.
@@robotcantina8957 But as you mentioned in your video is it the time of year more so than the content? The first two weeks of june kids are getting out of school and parents go on vacation. I guess as a bellwether you could switch over to more traditional videos like with the Predator or the Renault and see if its time of year or the content. Also I've wondered, do you have alternate sources for channel support like Patreon or Buy me a coffee? With the amount of ABS filament you go through I can see the need for that revenue stream too.
@@georgehooper429 I may try Patron, but the thing that holds me back is I have nothing to offer to the patrons. This channel takes 100% of my free time and I don't have anything to give to the patrons for the money they shell out.
@@robotcantina8957 You have the most valuable item of all to give, "your content". You are not shilling anything other than support for your channel. Somehow you need to refill your scrap aluminium bin. That top shelf stuff you use is not cheap. Enjoy your time away, we will be waiting eagerly for your next episode.
Love love love this project Jimbo! Any thoughts of incorporating the EGT into the software? If EGT’s get high, add boost…if at max boost, step out the fuel rack. A nice software safety/feedback system for varying altitudes and temperatures. Looking forward to more, keep up the good work!
Having been a mechanically inclined kid who "learned" programming, I'm satisfied with both aspects. Don't let your analytics make you think we're not watching. It's summer and they're out enjoying the roads you show us weekly. Good thing about YT, we can take you with us. Enjoy your vacation, happy Father's Day and keeping wrenching and testing.
i'm really looking forward to this video updates. i think controlling the governor and the boost electronically is one of the most interesting videos you make on the kubota diesel series. looking forward to the fuel economy test, which i think will be the most affected thing for this electronic control addition
Enjoy your off-time, Jimbo! I seriously enjoyed your technological ventures so far. But, don't neglect your Misses over your free time, though! 😉 I'll come back to you, anyways...!😊
It's 9am Sunday☕️🎉 Robot Cantina. Class is in session, what I learned today. Military grade satellite tracking for 30 doll hairs😂. Great stuff as usual. Enjoy your vacation. Now, I'm off to work on my own project.
I still watched last weeks video despite camping, Running a 24" pc monitor that runs from 12v plugged into a toolbox with 1.2kwh of Lifepo4. Samsung Dex came in clutch. I came here for the nuts and bolts but Arduinos are my forte and I love seeing you figure out how to use it the best.
14:27 - What's next? 'Fast and furious' style Laptop on the passenger seat checking and tweaking the 'Map' etc on the fly?" "Dude, I almost had you!" 😏🤣🤣🤣 😎🇬🇧
Loving the small computer controls on this. Once you go full auto, i'd recommend logging things like the vehicle speed, EGT, boost pressure, engine RPM, and stepper positions.
@@CynyrI thought of the R Pi 400 with the GPIO stuff, but no monitor. There's probably a low power consuming and suitable screen available on the jungle site. And while I doubt Jimbo will crash, air bags and screens seem like a poor mix, to me.
Here is another great episode. Its nice to see everything in action from the boost valve to the fuel rack adjustments. Just as an idea instead of having Duke chase you around the Kansas farmlands, you could mount a gopro to watch the exhaust. I’ve been trying to think of a catchy name for this camera. All I can come up with is “coal cam”, which is a bit lame. Also nice touch with the Heads Up Display [HUD] so you can get real time results from all of your gizmos as they go about their business. From a viewer standpoint it would have been helpful to visualize what’s going on if you could have also converted the computer units to engineering units (0-100% boost, I understand rack position is a bit harder to express simply). I’m wondering if rack position controls fuel rail pressure or just fuel flow (like opening an orifice). But anyways enjoy your time off, relax, and regenerate.
So so late today. I guess I slept in. Happy Father's Day everyone! Got my coffee making, and my Cantina playing, I'm good to go, let this epic Sunday commence! Happy Father's Day, Jimbo. You're like our TH-cam dad, always doing the cool projects and letting us tag along, thanks for that!
There are plenty of high power project cars on youtube but this is my favorite. The sort of backyard engineering is way more interesting than watching someone hose their car down with $10,000+ worth of parts.
Also nice job tuning. This kind of tuning stuff is the icing on the cake. Rolling coal says 'I finish (tuning) too early' way better than a huge lift kit or 24" offsets ever could 🤣
You’ve taken things to the next level, and you have a dedicated following of people who are willing to learn along with you. This build is incredible, and thoroughly impressed by your ventures in multiple fields of interest.
I think the series is getting even more interesting. Software and automated systems built from scratch is next level. Kudos Jimbo, watching from Vancouver Island Canada.
The fact that I have more stuff to do in the summertime does affect my ability for one to watch videos as early and quick as I normally do. Keep up the content and we will see you in a couple of weeks.
My Sunday morning is complete again. Thanks, Jimbo! Now that the video is over, my last two ounces of coffee is going to be a lot more boring to finish off 😂
Dude is building his own ECU, and writing his own code. Much respect!
this ECU is like a 1980s feedback carburetor system. the gross engine control is still manual but the fine tuning and some emissions over-riding is ECU managed. Very impressive. ❤ (especially if it is more reliable than 1980s emissions equipment 😂)

Yep
And all it does is foul the engine with soot , and at the small end a few diamonds. Really good stuff for the ex wife’s engine but not mine please
Please keep the random software and electronics stuff. Its one of things I actually enjoy most.

Just as an idea instead of having Duke chase you around the Kansas farmlands, you could mount a gopro to watch the exhaust. I’ve been trying to think of a catchy name for this camera. All I can come up with is “coal cam”, which is a bit lame.
Also nice touch with the Heads Up Display [HUD] so you can get real time results from all of your gizmos as they go about their business. From a viewer standpoint it would have been helpful to visualize what’s going on if you could have also converted the computer units to engineering units (0-100% boost, I understand rack position is a bit harder to express simply). I’m wondering if rack position controls fuel rail pressure or just fuel flow (like opening an orifice).
But anyways enjoy your time off, relax, and regenerate.
Banana in the tailpipe prevention cam?
The "NO Smoke " show cam lol
Still here! As a one time TV repairer, car racer & engine builder, chainsaw engineer and IT Manager, there is no unappreciated content😊
So so late today. I guess I slept in.
Happy Father's Day everyone!
Got my coffee making, and my Cantina playing, I'm good to go, let this epic Sunday commence!
Happy Father's Day, Jimbo. You're like our TH-cam dad, always doing the cool projects and letting us tag along, thanks for that!
Thank you for being my Sunday Morning Entertainment! I like your overall transition to building your own ECU.
I was waiting all morning.. ❤❤❤❤❤
There are plenty of high power project cars on youtube but this is my favorite. The sort of backyard engineering is way more interesting than watching someone hose their car down with $10,000+ worth of parts.
>super simple program
>Programs a character LCD and everything is lined up and spaced properly
I bow to you Jimbo
Also nice job tuning. This kind of tuning stuff is the icing on the cake. Rolling coal says 'I finish (tuning) too early' way better than a huge lift kit or 24" offsets ever could 🤣
You’ve taken things to the next level, and you have a dedicated following of people who are willing to learn along with you. This build is incredible, and thoroughly impressed by your ventures in multiple fields of interest.
As a fellow computer nerd/gear head I have thoroughly enjoyed this project! Keep up the hard work. The stuff you do is nothing less than inspiring.
Amazing, no smoke!
I think the series is getting even more interesting. Software and automated systems built from scratch is next level. Kudos Jimbo, watching from Vancouver Island Canada.
The fact that I have more stuff to do in the summertime does affect my ability for one to watch videos as early and quick as I normally do. Keep up the content and we will see you in a couple of weeks.
I'm a former software guy and also a gearhead, so I've been loving the last few videos.
My Sunday morning is complete again. Thanks, Jimbo! Now that the video is over, my last two ounces of coffee is going to be a lot more boring to finish off 😂
