KManager corrupted my map - I think?!?

Post by milano_chris »

Car is a 2001 JDM Spec Integra DC5.

OK I had my lappy on the KPro for the first time today and I changed the folling things on the map:
  • Changed rev limit from 8800 to 8600 RPM
  • Enabled MIL flashing when knock is detected
  • Enable VTEC Oil Pressure sensor (no idea why this was disabled)
Now I have the following problems:

1) When in second gear and the revs are about 1500 and less, the car will kangaroo as if the fuelling is messed up. Does this when hot and obviously when cold. Will only stop if I disengage the clutch and change back to first. Quite annoying when I'm approaching a junction and a change to first isn't necessary.

2) When the car is fully warmed up and it's idling at 750, and I blip the throttle, the revs will rise to about 1200, then the engine will change note slightly and rise at a different rate as if there is a second press of the gas pedal even though there isn't.

3) How accurate it the DC5's rev counter? I wanted to take the car to the limiter to check the upper limit was working, but the needle was well on the way into the red and almost at 9000 rpm and no limiter. I know this is bad practice, but I wanted to check. I changed gear from fear of ever revving.

I made all these changes yesterday on the latest version of KManager. I understand their is an issue with doing this sometimes if the car was mapped on an older version. Could someone take a look and tell me if there is anything obvious thats wrong?

Also, the VTEC oil senser, is there actually one fitted on the K20A?

All sorted now.

The Oil Pressure decetor isn't present on the JDM K20 and apparantly having it on can cause all sorts of issues.

Good to hear it is working.

Typically a tach will be 400 rpm out at redline, so 8600 rpm will read 9000 rpm.

Cheers. The KPro is an awsome bit of kit in the way that I don't have to take it so high in the revs. Cams will sort that though :D Just don't want to overev on the track...

Thanks again.
