Re: SVX: Idle Fixed; Still Hesitates though...
John, its a 92. I lost the pickup on my Small Car VSS and didn't know it. About that time I install a chip and thought my problem was cured. Almost two years later I discovered the missing pickup,

Re: SVX MPG
what size tire are you running? I've never gotten better than 16mpg out of either of my SVX conversions. I tried smaller tires (which made a different on the Tiico conversion), but on the SVX, it

Re: SVX: Idle Fixed; Still Hesitates though...
Don: Great suggestions; I will do this. - The sound you reference is high tension clicking? Coil voltage arcing to ground rather than firing the plug? Most easily heard while revving motor with

Re: SVX: Idle Fixed; Still Hesitates though...
You might try this : Run up the motor. Open the rear hatch and with a hose or stethoscope, listen around the coils as you pick up the rpm's. Listen for a ticking...not the EVAP Valve. It is not

Re: SVX Hesitation
Thanks Neil I will try one of these chips, though I feel that the forum archives are a bit inconclusive as to whether they fully address the hesitation problem (or perhaps just make it a little less

Re: SVX: Idle Fixed; Still Hesitates though...
John Very interesting! The plot thickens... So, you ran for a couple of weeks without VSS, then hooked it up to the ECU (with your van running). CEL went out, and the van has run properly ever since

SVX MPG
Bob: I have a couple of SVX correspondents reporting ~20mpg highway, but pretty sure this is at 55 - 60 mph steady. Seems doable, as my 17 mpg to date is av 70+ mph, with a van that ain't running

Re: SVX Hesitation
Corey Believe you're right; its at all speeds - just much more prevalent around town. The fact that it seems to effect so many SVX conversions (search the forum archives)makes me wonder whether

Re: SVX: Idle Fixed; Still Hesitates though...
John, I have had similar issues with stumbling and hesitation with my SVX with Vanagon automatic. The wiring diagram shows a VSS input to the ECU but no specific information about how this input is

Re: SVX Hesitation
Neil: I missed part of this thread. Are you saying there is a chip that can be plugged into the ECU that will allow the 3.3 to run satisfactorily on regular gasoline? Can you you provide details like

Re: SVX Hesitation
I just got mine running finally and am having similar issues with hesitation (I think), though it doesn't seem to matter how fast I'm going. If I mash the pedal, it runs great! Otherwise, it's a

Re: registering ej25 conversion in CA
It looks like you already have a running 2.5 so the short answer is "no", unless you are close friends with a SMOG station which means you'll be going down that road every two years. BAR won't go
