I'm looking at a similar project but don't know where to start I have a diesel fuel pump from a Landcruiser, which I want a microcontroller to take the input from throttle, then tell the pump what timing to put in at what RPM. So the only input I need for this project is Throttle control. On the microcontroller I'll bench tune the pump (with fuel/timing) and map select. It will essentially have the same control as a mechanical pump, with the advantage of the electronic fuel pump (more power) without having to spends thousands on aftermarket ECU's ect
Hello. Basically what you are describing is an ECU. You can get cheap plug and play ECUs that can do that for you. I will eventually do how to make an ECU but i first need to do auto electrical 101. You would need to code in a 2D Array on C++ its a bit tricky but can be done. I hope to do more tech videos in future similar to your needs
