Why not go back to Crockett and ask his opinion? The guy knows his stuff.
How much boost can those old MEFI units read? Any chance that anything about 5 psi is out of range of the MAP sensor? 80lbs is off the charts! |
without starting a war here...but this is the issue with the merc MEFI systems and not being able to tune on the fly in the boat for the most of the guys...not to many setups/elevations/etc are the same so sending the ECM out getting a tune done and trying, then repeating is a pain. your 80psi fuel pressure is just a big bandaid that procharger tried to no tune was required..again banaid....you need to change injectors/rails, possibly fuel system(not sure what you have done) then work on tune to get it right...my .02 Rob

Mefi 4s can tune on the fly with Tuner Pro emulator and/or Mefi Burn.

So does that mean you can make changes to all of the maps real time while someone is driving the boat ?
As mentioned, you are out of injector. Being a 97, you have Keihin injectors. There are no drop in replacements. However, we have redrilled the intake and fuel rails to accept long Mototron injectors. You can then go to 65 lb injectors (high impedance) that will support all you want to do. You will also need to make some mods to the rail so that I can be fed from both ends. The main fuel passage way in that rail isn't that large, not to mention you can't feed it with large lines or fittings. That is why we feed it from both ends. 80 psi is really hard on the injectors. The pintle has to close against that pressure and it really takes it's toll on them over time. Go to a Mefi 4B so that it can be tuned properly with a more manageable fuel pressure. Not only are you out of injector, but at 80 psi, you are probably at the upper end of what the pump can do. As pressure increases, the volume that the pump moves decreases. We have done a ton of them. Let me know if we can help in any way. Eddie |

Eddie, R/C injection in Torrance has drop in replacements for Keihin injectors in many sizes. I replaced my Keihin with RC units.
Tyler Crockett has helped me optimize my current set-up and I am going to run it for the rest of the summer. Running Great!! I am going to research my options over the Michigan off-season, Which lasts about 9 months, and decide which direction I want to go for future upgrades. Thank you everyone for the advice, comments, and input! What a Fabulous wealth of knowledge and guys willing to share it available on OSO ! |

The largest replacements I have seen is 50 lb/hr. We actually flowed some at the shop and they flowed the same as the stock 42's.
Eddie I've been running these injectors, my motor, self tuned, for over 3 years now (180 hrs run time). No complaints. Offering this merely as a data point for those in need. |
