FUEL INJECTION 101

Many times a second, a group of sensors
measure various engine and atmospheric
conditions.
conditions
Just as fast, the Engine Control Unit (ECU)
analyzes the sensor data and commands
the correct fuel delivery.
Sensors also evaluate the accuracy of the
EFI commands and use the feedback to fine
tune future commands.

ADVANTAGES OF EFI
More torque and power
Intake manifold can be optimized, improved control of fuel and
spark, tunability

Improved throttle response and drivability

No hesitation/stumble when cold

No vapor
p lock when hot
Infinitely tuned versus tuned for one spot with a carb
Easy starting, regardless of weather

Better fuel economy

Superior tunability, Wide band feedback and control

Lower exhaust emissions

Good for many reasons

Overall increase in engine lifetime

Better running engines last longer

DISADVANTAGES OF EFI
Complicated
Requires advanced knowledge of engine performance

Tuning is difficult and expensive

Requires a dyno and countless test sessions
Requires a laptop and the ability to use it
Requires

professional tuner

Expensive
EFI system, manifold, dyno time, laptop, tuner time

Cant see it
Little black boxes and a lot of wires

Fear factor
Horror stories of legend

Sanctioning bodies
Many dont embrace or allow EFI

Design Objectives for EZ-EFI

ELIMINATE the Disadvantages of EFI!

Infancy of Program
EFI Guys banned from planning session!
EFI guys dont understand how Carb guys think

CARB Guys led the planning and approval sessions!

What do they want, what do they fear, what would get their
interest

No laptop / No tuning needed
Use existing carb manifolds

What is REAL Self Tuning

WARNING: Many companies are claiming self tuning

Closed Loop Wide Band Feedback is NOT self tuning

Limited block learn from closed loop is NOT self
tuning
Requiring a pre-tune or selecting a map to start is
a sure sign of inferior, inaccurate claim of self tuning

The (Big) Hurdles

Properly functioning and capable self tuning

How Long Does it Take to Install?
Professional: 2-8hrs*
Do it Yourselfer: A weekend

Depends on application and fuel system

Installing

Where is the time?
Fuel system this is the biggest
time variable.
If the vehicle is already EFI based,
based fuel
setup is very quick.

For carb conversions,, the fuel system
requires modification to convert to EFI

Installing
g EZ-EFI
Where is the time?
Installing the Wide Band O2
All EZ-EFI kits include a weld-in bung and plug. The
bung can be welded in at a shop and plugged for the
drive home, or it can be welded in to a header off the
car.
FAST does NOT recommend clamp-in adaptors for
wide band O2. These may appear easy, but they are
prone to leaking. Leaking exhaust will kill self-tuning
