As the temp drops, the controller will reduce the voltage to the pump... I'm not sure if it does this or not. I think it might use one steady voltage after shut down. But at any rate, will it be bad for any part of the system for the pump to run at 14.5v, max flow, with the T-stat closed? What lead...

It's good to have circulation through the engine during warm up to help prevent hot spots from building up and keep the internal temps consistent. What you might try is plumbing the pump to push water through the engine and have the heater core loop come back into the circuit *upstream* of the pump,...

Looks like constant flow injection... I assume that big block with the hoses and throttle linkage connection is a throttling valve.

You could attach the throttle linkage directly to the valve, remove the throttle plates and build a diesel.

I found the disk admin tools... they hid those from where they were the last time I messed with NT 4.0... But I still can't format the 60 GB partition. Windoze gets almost to the end, then stops and gives me an error message something like "disk is too big"... That's trying to format FAT32...

The calibration may not be off by a consistent amount due to resonances and intake tract turbulence that change with different engien airflow demands. This is why MAF based engine management still needs to be tuned.

all GMs, or just late models? Are the L98's frequency output? The L98's (Bosch) were a 0-5v analog voltage output. All others were frequency based. To properly calculate airflow, you need to use absolute manifold pressure and temperature along with maps of other engine variables such as volumetric ...

That's exactly what I was going to do (except call the Windoze drive D: and the big one C: so that all the crap I install doesn't default to the OS partition), but the Windoze installation disk wouldn't finish formatting a 60 GB partition... So what's available in the area of repartitioning hard dri...
