Re: Beta Testers
Hi Austin, Coincidentally, my SC Interface board seems to be not working. It is, probably, 8 years since I installed my SC Kit. It's a 2007 2.5 with VW Auto. I'm ready if chosen !! :o) Thanks, John C... On Wed, Jan 25, 2023 at 7:02 PM TTT <austin@...> wrote:

Re: evoscan works .. partially
Hmmm . well still hoping to hear from someone an active member who had success, the EvoScan "support " doesn't seem to be responsive to our application (its a facebook chat).?
I found a site from an interesting guy (helped build the burning man temples ! (?.) looks like he has had both OBD-I & II EJ 22s and collected data from other users. So it can be done . Both of you , If you want to add some details re cables & connectors we might figure it out . I will say it helped a lot to get the B10 Scantool to work just to get the ROM number and be confident the connections work . Plus those Binary parameters are really nice to have . I used an old Sony Vaio with the 25 pin printer port that a friend set up to open to DOS.? Jason, I immediately uploaded the 3.0 upgrade (free) and I have found I am able to change the units but i haven't tried moved or relabel fields.? Best? ?m? |

evoscan works .. partially
Hi Again .
I'm using the evoscan 3.0 to fine tune a rebuilt 1994 (OBD1) 2.2 legacy AT NA in my VW syncro. I finally got things hooked up and running . I captured some data . However .
Be aware . the software come with virtually no info and you have to join facebook to? ask questions . Understandably mot folks are not interested in OBD1 applications so im hoping someone here has some experience to share .? 2 things to know . Your purchase receipt has a code you need to activate the software and I had to get the USB driver from the TTL232 cable manufacturer here?https://ftdichip.com/drivers/d2xx-drivers/ I can see a fault code from the black blug diagnostics connector blinky lights on the dashboard (#24) but doesn't come up using the read DTC function in the software ... Q- do i need to connect the black read connectors to read the codes via the software ? will it work with power only or needs engine running. Also there are 2 sets of 8 binary parameters Binary parameters that should be available :
Q- Is evoScan able to display these values ? |

Re: alternator upgrade question 3 pin to 2 pin
Thanks Brent, I think I've referred to your website since my first conversion 15 yrs ago (cutting out the poptop to install a decent skylight if I recall).
I solved the problem and it was a simple as it gets . I had a pile of skid plate .bumper & undercarriage parts powder coated and I threw in a few engine brackets etc. while i was at it . i tested ground continuity between the alternator & bracket and it was fine but after systematically testing i found the bracket to the block was completely isolated .. rather than bull the bracket I added a dedicated ground wire. I can confirm the >14V output @ 2k RPM . I connected White "S" connector directly to the B+ post . I have seen Web knowledge that it may be better to get that feedback directly from the +ve? post on the battery and ill be checking that today.?? While I'm confessing to rookie moves ill share a a tip . Test your coolant setup before bolting on the intake manifold ... I sourced some non OEM bolts for the water manifold and spotted significant coolant weeping onto the block after assembling everything. Turns out the bolts were bottoming out and when i torqued them to spec they didn't compress the new O rings. That one took forever to figure out? (thankfully its required only low torque) .Those 4 long bolts were off by 2-3 mm.? |

You just spray carb cleaner into it and/ or let it soak and use q-tips to clean the interior it as much?as possible. ?? On Sat, Jan 14, 2023 at 23:08 Robert F. Chhaing-Carleton (Douglas) <mindeyed@...> wrote: Hi Wayne, How did you clean it? |
