    VL 6cyl auto trans wiring diagram.

    They will all go to the transmission controller that then gets fed stuff from the ecu

    Speed sensor fault

    Just buy a couple of spare 2nd hand genuine dfis of you are worried about failures they tend to last forever and will pack plenty enough spark we make 400rwkw on stock dfi and coils

    The complete Vn-Vr Manual Conversion Guide.

    You will need some kind of signal convertor like the dakota digital speedo corrector I think can do it or the jaycar one but the new version seems to be a bit flaky

    Ecotech LN30 comparability with the L36

    Vy ended up getting different conrods and balance shaft but everything else ecotec will suit

    Second hand ECMs (ECU)

    I send all my alloytec **** to Trevor at Holden diagnostics Ltd here in nz (hsv08) on here he links all the modules on his test bench and can do full sets of bcm pim pcm and brand new keyheads he did the modules in my drag car so it will start and run

    VZ Exec No Start, No fuel pump, Fuel gauge error.

    Has different cam sensors early reads 2 Hall positions in each sensor and late reads 1 if you unplug the cam sensors it will run won't even start with them plugged in. Mine has a late model tune on the ecu and early vz engine it's currently running without the sensors till I get round to reflash...

    Alloytec intermittent fault - not starting.

    It's the 2nd most common issue after timing chains lol
  24. delcowizzid

    VZ Exec No Start, No fuel pump, Fuel gauge error.

    The sensors work the same but the trigger wheels on the cams have different Teath counts

    VZ Exec No Start, No fuel pump, Fuel gauge error.

    The ecu is failing very common no crank fuel gauge error etc. If you swap in the other ecu you also need to swap in the bcm pim and key for it to start and it needs to be from the same series of engine as the cam sensor count on the cam sprockets changed. Mine has the wrong sprockets and only...

    21 Throttle pos sensor above 2.5 volts for 2 seconds when engine speed below 1600 rpm. indicates a problem with the TPS sensor, or an open in TPS circuit. Check for a sticking or misadjusted TPS. 22 Throttle pos sensor below .2 volt for 2 seconds while engine running. indicates a defective or...

    VR 5.0L Code 22 Recurring

    Closed throttle it should be around 0.4v and no higher than 0.55 and it shouldn't change. The ecu reads the tps volts at key on and auto zeros it if its stuck partly open and then sucks closed once running can cause you grief so can other things like low vacum readings on the map sensor can...

    Ecotec Sump

    Make sure you bolt it down to a solid jig or it will bend and twist like a banana

    Do these O2 sensor graphs look ok?

    He is not overriding them he's tuning the actual ecu maps based off the o2 sensor feedback so the maps are more refined and the o2 are correcting less variation the closer you get it the better the economy as the ecu swings rich and lean over and over when in closed loop and watches the o2...
