Crook86 Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 Hey I've done this in an FG with HAEE5T4, works great with AC off and in N or P but stops when AC in turned on or in gear. I can see from the logs the rpm isn't changing but MAP is increasing from 14/15 inHg to 20inHg and that's when the ghost cam stops. I have tried looking for various TPS maps to see if theres an adder somewhere for load/AC. Has anyone dialled this with an FG or am I using the wrong OS? I have the professional version.

Roland@pcmtec Posted May 15, 2020 Author Share Posted May 15, 2020 It controls idle to rpm used a closed loop airflow and spark controller. So when you turn on the AC the idle drops, this makes the airflow controller kick in and give more airflow which then increases idle back to the setpoint. You'll see that the TPS and the load increases when this happens. To make the car still chop when this happens you need to datalog the TPS and load making sure the cam timing tables have overlap at these two values.

Ive got the ghost cam intermittently working after following this thread and playing around with it for a few hours, it works 1/2 the time the engine is running and cuts in and out of the ghost cam and i cant figure out why, and when it does cut out it sounds like a misfire not normal idle. I've attached my tune if anyone has any ideas. Thanks in advance Ghost cam #2.tec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yamonda Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 You may have to extend the max overlap table auF0116, log A/D counts, it may be going over 10 A/D counts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seanlivingstone Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 Hi there. We've got a barra converted patrol, running fg turbo motor with the ZF. For some reason after copying over the parameter file, it works perfectly for about 15 seconds, changes spark source from base to idle and after that it seems to smooth itself out and stay on idle spark source. If we give the slightest throttle opening it works perfectly again, but the second you take your foot off the accelerator, the cams no longer overlap, and the idle smooths itself out again in a few seconds. If anyone has any idea that could help, it would be much appreciated. I can post a datalog if you would like, just let me know what pids you would like to see. Thank you!

Roland@pcmtec Posted July 17, 2020 Author Share Posted July 17, 2020 Sounds like the camshaft enable/disable setpoints are not being set. Can you confirm they are both (auF1079 auF1079 ) set to -1000 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seanlivingstone Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 just had a look and seems like its staying in cam_source 3. this log is me just touching the throttle and then letting off. the overlap seems to work correct when throttle is on sounds like it has a huge cam and rpm goes between 600-1000 just pretty slow compared to most of the vids on here. cheers mate 17-07-2020 11-38-00 AM Log.teclog load1 ghost cam.tec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yamonda Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 Hi mate, i'm a bit of a novice myself but give that a try, i think it was probably coming out of the load values for the overlap in the overlap table and i changed the idle up a bit and overlap angle to 35 degrees 969498711_load1ghostcam.tec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brenden Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Hi everyone, iv got a customer in that is complaining about his ghost cams " stumbling " and stalling at times when coming to a stop, has anyone come across this ? not the best video of the stumbling sorry is an FG mk1 xr6t manual 2010 IMG_1265.MOV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roland@pcmtec Posted August 3, 2020 Author Share Posted August 3, 2020 Turn off LTFT when the ghost cams are enabled, this requires that your fuel injectors are dialed in within 5% with the ghost cam is disabled. Then make sure you lean it out at idle via the overlap SD adder so that it isn't pig rich. Finally I recommend setting up the camshaft timing rpm breakpoints so that at 500-600 you run -30 overlap (a reverse ghost cam). This will make the rpm kick back up if it starts to stall. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roland@pcmtec Posted September 27, 2020 Author Share Posted September 27, 2020 Fairly sure it does but you could do it other ways by modifying the MBT timing at idle for example. Experiment, I'm sure there are many ways you could do it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is because there is no answer for the question you are asking. It depends how lumpy you want it and also the misfire limit with your injectors and spark plugs. Anywhere from. 28 to 34 deg of overlap is what people typically run and what was put in the howto guide. You need experiment and take videos then ask for help, eg this is what I have tried, here is a datalog and here is the problem I am experiencing. Help other people help you.

Roland@pcmtec Posted April 6, 2021 Author Share Posted April 6, 2021 Running that rich will likely foul plugs causing stalling issues and wash the bores if you leave it idling like that for an extended period of time. Definitely turn off LTFT/lean it out at idle in those areas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
