ms2 v3.0 no PWM flyback damping circuit installed?

Post by project89 »

i bought a used ms2 v3.0 it does not have the PWM flyback damping circuit but it does have the standard flyback circuit installed

can this run low-z injectors as is or do i need to install the pwm flyback

this is on a twin turbo sbc
ive been having major problems getting the car to do anything more then idle so today i pulled the board out of the case to make sure nothing was missing and thats what i found

if it will run the low-z injectors what are the correct settings for the injectors
im currently running

f you have low impedance injectors (less than 4 Ohms), set the:

Opening time to 0.6ms
PWM Time Threshold to 1.0 ms
PWM Current Limit to 30%
injector pwm period of 66


thanks guys this is my first time using ms with a set of low-z injectors,so im a lil lost as to what the settings need to be and what hardware needs to be installed

i have to order the tip125;s form ur site since my local radioshadack doesnt carry them,

for the time being until they get here is there any settings i can use to get the car to run with the low-z injectors just so i can drive it 4 blocks away to get my saftey inspection done so i can reregister the car since im already overdue on doing that
