ECU inputs that can affect FCO:
-mass flow (i.e. AFM output)
-RPM
-intake temp
-coolant temp
-TPS
-baro

supradan22 said:So what does a Fuel Cut Defenser do to the ecu to keep it from cutting the fuel?
I was just making an assumption that turned out to be correct. The assumption was he was being a bit of smart ass since people dont understand plain english, try a foreign language. Or something like that.:biglaugh:GrimJack said:Dammit, you made me go look it up! :biglaugh:
jetjock said:In the case of a turbo car the AFM sends out a frequency (not a voltage) proportional to metered airflow. The ecu is programmed to cut injection when this frequency exceeds a certain amount. It's a function of the TCCS's fail safe mode. That's what happens. Why it needs to happen has already been explained but the designed purpose is to protect against various forms of wastegate failure.
