Been wiring up today and looking at the megasquirt v.3 wiring diagram it shows the 4 injectors in banks of 2 ( wasted squirt) but there is no cylinder
number related to each injector on the diagram??
Is it batch fired as standard (all injectors fire at the same time) as i can t find any info in the mega manual.....
or are they bank fired 1&2 , and 3&4 ?
Ash.
It will do either dependent on settings for number of squirts per rev.

I usually wire up the four injectors 1&3 , 2&4 , then set the megasquirt to fire 2 per cycle , alternating .
They are batch-fired - setting 1 per cycle will fire all four together .
I wired mine as in this diagram. It works fine set in Simultaneous and Alternating.

I'll wire them up 1&3 , 2&4 then and set the rate via the software.......
I joined injectors 1+4, 2+3 to match valve opening. Setting 4 squirts alternating will ensure absolutely equal fuelling across all cylinders. Other people recommend 1+3, 2+4. Not sure why. Possibly a better wiring for 2 squirts alternating?
It really makes no difference, the squirts are relative to engine rpm not crank position.
If you look at early EFI systems they all ran batch until emmissions forced them to be a bit more clever, but this only makes things cleaner at idle
and low revs.
Megasquirt 2 x squirts per engine revolution on a 4 stroke engine means that 3 out of 4 squirts hit a closed inlet valve, once the revs build you are
just providing a mist of fuel that get sucked in when the valve opens.

I've always been under the impression the it's squirts per cycle not squirts per revolution.
From the MegaManual:
quote:
Injections per Engine Cycle is set the number of squirts you want per engine cycle. You want this to be set so that your idle pulse width is no less than 2.0 ms, if possible, and your Req_Fuel is less than 12-15 milliseconds, but more than 8 milliseconds. These values allow proper tuning of the idle mixture while maintaining the ability to apply enrichments (acceleration, warm-up, etc.) under full throttle. This is the total injector events that you wish to occur for every engine cycle (360 degrees for two stroke engines and 720° for four strokes).
