Subject: Non-Delivery of:Gas Sensors

Hi.

Someone have information about the ODEGA system
(On-board Diagnostic Exhoust Gas Analyzer).
I readed about a proyect and Ford, GM and Chrysler
want to put a small gas analyzer to comply with
poullutant norms.

Thanks.
Oscar

Are you talking @xxx. If so all use for OBDII, a 2nd o2
sensor after the cat to measure cat efficiency and log error if bad.
If not , there are in development, solid state gas sensors that will
measure multiple gases. Dr John Gland @ UM is a major developer in
that area.

Subject: Re: L-jetronic info

I currently have a 85 SVO Mustang, which is modified a great deal, the
problem I am now facing is the air volume meter, which is a Bosch unit.  Has
anyone ever converted one of these engines to run a mass airmeter which
would increase the air flow to the engine.  Other people have done it in the
past, but does anyone have any ideas or inforamtion.

Subject: Variable cam timing

Hi everyone,

I've been thinking about the subject of variable cam timing, which seems
to come and go on this group. The idea of electromagnetically actuated
valves may be prohibitive in the amount of power it would use from the
electrical system, what about a synchro-type system where the amount of
slip between the driving motor (driven from the crank) and the driven
motor (connected to the timing chain / cam gear itself) can be varied,
giving a variable cam timing technique? it could be extended into having
different timing for intake & exhaust, for dohc engines. 

The motors I thought of using would be some sort of induction motor, to 
eliminate the use of brushes.

It may sound a little vague at the moment, what I wanted to do was to 
"throw the cat among the pidgeons", so to speak. Any more that I may add 
will come later. I wanted everyone's ideas on this for now.

Thanks very much,

		Bruno.  (u933234@xxx.au)

To those of you who are familiar with it, does anyone have an extra SSI 67f687
engine management chip?  We've blown a couple and SSI is supposedly on
backorder -- have to race Formula SAE in one week.  Please help, will pay cash.

Thanks,

Use 2 flappers and 2 controllers, each handling one cylinder bank.
It has been done in factory setups.
