Default Cranking A/F ratio

Is there a table allows me to adjust the cranking A/F ratio?


Thanks

John

I think that the Cranking VE table is more for fine tuning the cranking A/F. Using EFILive, if you monitor the Commanded AFR PID it will show the commanded A/F ratio. On warm starts mine shows ~13.1:1. But what is really strange is that on cold starts the Commanded AFR shows 4.5:1 to 5.5:1 and the car is hard to get started. After the car gets started and is in Open Loop the commanded AFR tracks with he data in the Open Loop F/A table (Fuel Air Multiplier). Is there such a table for the cranking A/F?

I thought about having a bad sensor. On cold startup the ECT and the IAT are showing what the outside air temp is. The MAP on start-up while the engine is cranking but not started is 97-102 Kpa. There is no MAF frequency until the RPMs are greater than 300 or so. This all seems correct.

In hptuners I can get to this table: Cranking FA Mult Stage 1 vs. Cranking Time

It's got seconds down the side, and temps across the top.

Engine,
Fuel Control,
PE, Injectors, Cranking, Flood and DFCO,
Then a section on that tab for cranking fuel.

At hot temps, the multiplier is .99
At colder temps the multiplier is high, and becomes higher the longer the engine is cranking.
