I better start looking for the diodes...

 

5th store and no diodes... The lady was nice enough to pull out a list of other Radio Shacks and start calling. On the 4th store (not including the 5 I've already tried), we found some and they are holding them for me. And it's only a 1.5hr drive

Do yourself a favor and get a list of local stores from radioshack.com and call ahead.

Part #276-1141
Diode 1N5400

Ask what shape they are, the old style is spherical, the newer ones are cylindrical (get the newer ones)

-D

 

LOL...whowouldathought...the Greddy TT community is single handedly wiping out the national inventory of 38cent diodes!

Suggestion here:

1) Instead of going to Radio Shack, try going to one of those geeky electronic parts stores like Marvac Electronics or something. Every city has one of these nerdy little stores...usually a hole in the wall...usually manned by social outcasts. They usually have an amazing inventory and diodes, transistors, and other generic electronic parts.

2) If they dont have the 50volt diodes (5100), and get the 100volt items (5101). See, any diodes will work since the voltage of those ignition ecu wires is 5volts max.

 

LOL! Yeah, it took me a few stops to find them as well.

 

OK, I have really put the diodes and ignition harness to the test. I have driven about 300 miles in 100 degree weather through lots of stop and go traffic, and plenty of idling. Everything is still running fine. This was the best $40 i have ever spent!

 

Was there anything you guys had to do to unlock the emanage to retard the timing, or was it plug and play? Would it be a good idea to retard the timing a few more degrees in the #5 and #6 cylinders if they ran leaner?

 

To make changes to the eManage, you have to inialize it with the profec e-01, then reenter the stock values. Then you can make whatever changes you want.

The eManage doesnt have the capability to retard timing in individual cylinders...it retards the same amount in all cyclinders.

 

Is it possible to make a new map similar by copying the stored map in the e-manage and change those setting? Kinda clone the pre-set Greddy setting then make the desired changes. That way you can always have your factory setting if you ever need to back to it.

 

yeah, I stored the stock map in DATA1, and my 7psi map is now in Data2. The memory card in the Profec can hold up to three maps. Once I install the pump, I will put my 9psi map in DATA3.

 

So there is no way to use the Emanage to just retard timing w/o the Profec e-01?

 

You can use the Greddy Support Tool to program the e-manage fi you don't want the Profec E-01.

 

Oh ok, thanx 350Now.

 

Finally, I've found the 6th diode.



I should have it in this week...

-D

 

True, but honestly the Profec-e01 is really whats brings the eManage to life. Otherwise, you need to carry your laptop with you and pull the carpet and kick panel to make changes. I also like that the Profec can display the data inputs and outputs on the screen....so you can REALLY know if the eManage is functioning properly.
