This is exactly the explanation I needed for the various parameters. Thank you so much. The crank to run explanation makes so much sense compared to documentation
As a newbie with Holley EFI, I appreciate you going over the step by step process. I loaded up my plugs waiting for the engine to come up to temp and changing them is a pain with a 30 over 350 gen one small block, straight plugs, 605 power steering box. power brake booster, and long tube headers in a 56 Chevy. I had to install a removable panel on the driver's side inner fender so that I can get to number 5 plug. A Terminator X Max Stealth with 8 injectors sits on an old school B&M 144 super charger, running Gas with E85 mixed in. Probably would have been easier with a LS swap but I started this back in the early 1990's before the LS age.
Sounds fine….now I’m wondering what ol mate from KSR is hearing😂 I think it’s just Devins jacked up raspy voice bro…sounds like he just chain smoked 2 packs of Marlboro and polished off a 40 of Jack Daniel’s 😂.
Hey bud I think you mis spoke @6:15 and meant learn not closed loop. The car can go into closed loop as soon as the O2 is warm. It doesn't wait for the temp enrichment table to reach 100%
If the Coolant Temp Enrichment (CTE) table has a value of 120 at 80 degrees and the After Start Enrichment (ASE) table has a value of 115 the ECU will add 20% not 15%? And if it was the other way around and the CTE value was 115 and the ASE table was 120 the ECU would add 20%? Is it safe to say the ECU uses whihcever table has the larger number? When should I use the CTE table vs the ASE table?
I have a twin turbo cobra we just got holley terminator installed been watching all your videos but I can't get it to crank without pumping the gas like a carburetor and then it does want to stay idling I have to keep my foot on the throttle about 5-8% on tps.
Sorry i am late to this... I am having a issue with a EBL P4 TPI setup... And i have a question about engines and fueling overall if you would help me.. My question is this.. If i live in a climate whereas the lowest temp the car would (EVER) be drove in is say 30's, if that unless a Christmas parade etc, but 80%+ of the time it will not be started or ran in any less than 50*F+ temps.. Is there any reason as to why the engine needs to warm up to operating temperatures faster? And if not, why would it be a bad ideal to warm the engine slower at a 14.7X:1 after startup until at closed loop operating temp if the car will idle fine at that ratio once started?!? The reason i ask is my car has a light gas sweet smell in the oil, true i am still dialing it in, however it's damn close, i mean close to "RAPED APE" settings.. I just want to lean her some, and i fear the high amount of idling may be causing it, mainly the startup to closed loop enrichment.... I start it often, once every 2-3 weeks, let her idle, make sure her battery is staying good and charged etc. Thanks!!! I appreciate these videos and have a couple for OBD1 guys and chips for those who need it. TPI stuff. Adam Gibbons
If my car ran flawlessly in cool air then 50° 50% humity then sat a month temp I’d 83 90% humidity would this rapid hot air cause it to not get on boost like as if it’s too fat?
I have a bone stock 5.0L Ford F150. I have a Terminator X system running it. Cold starts are fine. But, I have a huge problem with my Hot starts. It's so bad, that it almost kills the battery trying to crank and I feel like it is dumping so much fuel that it appears to hydro-lock. The reason I say this, is sometimes during cranking it will bog down the starter and stop it sometimes. Can you help me with this?

This the direction I was looking for thanks
Thanks Devin. Always appreciate your videos.
We need to get you an external microphone Devin. It will make your audio alot more clear/natural sounding.
KSR do you have a good recommendation that doesn't break the bank?
I use a Shure MV7, it's not super cheap, but it does a really good job
this was with my external mic. i am about to give up lol

Clint Garage no it’s bad.. but he just needs to adjust the gain on his mic. Turn it down a bit. That’s all he needs.
Excellent video thanks…I learn something cool everytime…I might just get a handle on Holley efi tuning yet.
Thank you again. You should do a video on hard start with E85.
Thanx Devin always learning

What do you suggest using for a turbo ls methanol car? Ve or pph? I’ve always used pph but this is my first methanol car
i start with ve

great info, grab a better microphone, your maxed out and your voice is getting destroyed by the mic
