99.999% of injected petrol cars are computer controlled injection. diesel is a different story though. they used to be mechanical but some more newer models are moving to computer controlled
I would suspect the ECU... engine computer!
I have now found fuel pump relay behind ashtray in centre console just a shame it was not the problem looks like the injectors are not being told to open by the ecu
You will need to reprogram the ECU when you put bigger fuel injectors into your Nissan. The manufacturer recommends that you do not use any fuel injectors other than the originals.
Yes, the injectors on an Astra CDTI 1.7 typically need to be programmed to the engine control unit (ECU) after replacement. This is necessary for the ECU to recognize the specific characteristics of each injector, ensuring optimal fuel delivery and engine performance. Failing to program the injectors can lead to issues such as misfires, poor fuel economy, or increased emissions. Always refer to the manufacturer's specifications or a professional mechanic for proper procedures.
on tbi engines 2 injectors 2 wires to 1 injector same to other on seqential inj 8 injectors 2 wires each 1wire fused positive feed other goes to ecu is then switched electronically on and off by ecu
Are you getting power to the system?
Some controlled devices by the ECU (ECM) would be, fuel injectors, idle air control (IAC) valve, fuel pump relay, linear EGR solenoid valve, electronic ignition control module, fuel tank vapor pressure sensor, a/c compressor relay, evaporative emissions (EVAP) canister purge solenoid, to name a few.
All of them?Fuse or faulty PCM/ECU.
Try Behind Radio
In a 1991 Pontiac Firebird, the fuel injectors pulse due to signals from the Engine Control Unit (ECU). The ECU monitors various engine parameters, such as air intake, temperature, and throttle position, to determine the optimal fuel delivery. It then sends electrical pulses to the fuel injectors, opening them at precise intervals to inject the right amount of fuel into the intake manifold for combustion. This pulsing action is essential for maintaining the engine's performance and efficiency.
yes the ecm and the ecu is the same thing. ecu stands for electronic control module and ecu stands for electronic control unit. they are both the same thing just ecm in canada and ecu in america.
Yes it will make your life much easier to have the turbo ecu and harness. The turbo injectors have a resistor pack that the non-turbo engines do not use. So that would have to be manually wired in to use stock turbo injectors and ecu.
