Since my car is running so well right now It's nothing more to tell right now concerning the Mega squirt installation. Made some final arrangement regarding the electrical installation, removed some unnecessary electrical connections which didn't have any function any more. Next step is to fine tune the warmup enhancement (as soon as it gets colder outside). When I have some fuel and ignition maps etc. I will post them here but I will do some more fine tuning first...
In the pictures I have used two "powerblocks", one has constant 12V from battery and the other is controlled by the ignition via the relay(for safety). By doing this i have easy acces to one constant 12V and one ignition controlled 12V without using the original power sources directly.

My next project is to fix the odometer gears since the "trip counter" only rotates when it wants to. I do have to remove the steering wheel and hopefully replace it with a wooden one at the same time.

Hey, any dyno measures or the like regarding the EFI conversion?
ReplyDeleteI have an 83 280 SL myself and considering doing the same!
I have not done that but I can assure you that it's worth it.
ReplyDeleteI had a very well working K-Jet system without any problem I must say that I can feel the difference. It could just be the faster response due to better ignition and fuel delivery but as I said before... Its a whole new car to drive IMO...
Yo are welcome to mail me if you have any detailed questions...
