06 MXS Acert???

What exactally does the fuel temp mod do that increases HP and doesanyone have any pictures of how to go about doing this mod? If it's as easy as people say I might have to give it a try.

 

read the first few pages of the cat power harness thread and it explains it well.

 

where can a guy buy the connectors and build the harnesses himself?

 

dont need to buy any connectors. just go to radio shack or your local cb shop and ask for ohm150 half watt resistors just bend the wires on the end of the resistors to fit tightly in the fuel temp plug ends and tape it up real good. they cost about .50 cents a piece. dont waist money on the harnesses.

 

found this in some notes (probably from Mr. Haney).

3 PIN FUEL TEMP SENSORS HAVE SERIAL # PREFIXES OF 5EK, 6TS, and 1LW. 3406E WITH A 2WS PREFIX HAVE A TWO PIN FUEL TEMP SENSOR*** 2003 and Prior C-15 & C-16 ENGINES WITH A 2-PRONG FUEL TEMPATURE SENSOR. SERIAL # PREFIXES ARE 2WS, 6NZ, and BXS.***

 

I got the upgraded filter base and wanna try an fs1212 do I use the o ring? Was running cat filters and they say don't use it

Put a little tape on it and do not plug it back in. It "lies" to the ECM about how warm the fuel is,the warmer the fuel actually is the less it works.

 

I tested the Fuel Temp / Fuel position today so I will do a Graph next week showing the relationship between the 2.
Quite interesting as it max's out @ 89c and cuts the rack back.
In the scheme of things its minimal under load with engine temp at operating temp. However down low and cold it will give a little fuel.. MAX variation in fuel at Full load is 2cc/60cc however u would never see this 2cc at operating temp

 

However, doesn't it matter what temp it is? For instance someone like yourself in aus to me at -30*C?

 

CAT fuel filters have the rubber seal built into them. You'll have to install the O-ring with other filter brands
