Have to investigate more.

About the coils.. that's just an idea I'm throwing around. Definitely not doing it before I have the MyP8 working.

Funny thing, looking at the link and the site you provided.

It seems that the amplifiers that are on the SPS, are some sort of dual channel setups. but the thing has only 1 spark plug/cylinder?? I don't get it, but then again, maybe I don't need to...

this further proves to me that the Italians are in their own league, when designing and assembling motorcycles.. I used to have a Guzzi LM V.. comparing Guzzis (and nowadays Ducatis) at meetings and such, even if the bikes were of the same year, thay still had different parts among them.. go figure.. I guess they just picked the first part from the parts bin and thought, "this will fit.."

Cheers,
Marko

Hi Marko

You have to see that the P7/8 was designed for cars, so the 4 coil outputs and 4 injector drivers. I've read somewere that the P7 was designed for the Ferrari F40 and used 2 of them, but not sure. Cheesy

Newer bikes are much more alike, but on the old days, that is true. Most italian brands had severe debts to supliers but still had to sell bikes to survive so they used what they had on the workshop.

Good luck on your project

Rick

Got the parts from Cliff last week.

Started the assembly this week. Luckily we have a good selection of tools at the office. it would be a pain to do it at home, on the kitchen table..

Also, Cliff provided me with a 'base' map, obviously designed for a California.

any members here care to share their Ducati maps to me? mostly interested in the InjAdv's. And what about the RPM's, I know my SPS will rev higher than a Cali..

$hit, I probably need to change the belts before I get the engine running again. They were supposed to be changed last winter.. but my mileage for the past two summers has been so low, that I postponed it.. can't do that any more.

I've successfully started my bike with the new MyECU.

map used was the one Cliff provided (cali10.ecu) with just a couple minor changes.

we tried both a pc connection with ecueditor (1.55) correction: version was of course 1.51, and android optimiser, latest version.

first thing noticed was that when the power is turned on, the fuel pump does not stop after a few seconds? this is strange.

seond, the sliders on the ecueditor do not seem to have an effect when slid back and forth? the change should be immediate, right?

also, cell edit on the android app while the engine was running, was behaving a little oddly. must test more to get good symptoms.

that's all for now, nothing was broken. I'm happy. Grin

For the fuel pump there are the following possibiliies
1) Output of FET is grounded
2) FET is damaged
3) Input of FET is being held high
4) Firmware of chip is corrupted
5) The chip is seeing engine pulses or noise

First check the output of the chip to see if you are getting the 2 second high pulse. If not repeat the check that particular pin bent slightly outwards so that it is out of the socket ( remove chip completely first !! )

Temperature reads -18.2 celsius and maybe 25 cm of snow. Christmas is just around the corner.. I predict that my next update will come in the year 2013. In the meanwhile, enjoy the holidays and stay safe.

well, it's been months now, and nothing has happened with my tuning..

Still snow on the ground and during the nights it drops below zero..

frustrating..

Soon we will start getting something done, I will be pestering JuhaV with multiple questions.
During the winter been trying to dig up info about the Ducati P8 maps and have gotten some info with the help of TunerPRO and some helpful online friends.

Also, need to look in to the fuel pump issue.

He has just acquired a s/hand item and the fuel pump will not run - can someone tell me what the dipswitch positions should be please ? These are all "on " at present...... TIA. Dw.
