Season 4 Episode 20. Jimbo installs sensors on the supercharged Kubota diesel engine so he can use an Arduino UNO to control the custom fuel rack limiter and linear boost controller. Will Jimbo be able to make this old school diesel engine behave like a modern engine? tune in and find out.

There used to be a really thriving community around using an ardrino to add functionality to old engines like fuel injection and more aggressive ignition timing variations. Some where just replacing old ECMs that went bad and there wasn't a competent/reliable replacement available. Some just wanted to see what they could do (I added electronic ignition and fuel injection to a 25hp 20 year old garden tractor, for instance) . A lot of that disappeared seemingly overnight when the EPA started going after the diesel modders claiming emissions circumventing and fines that would scare your grandchildren's grandchildren. Some of the software and schematics is still around and getting updated but it's harder to find. People aren't as open as they used to be. Did you do anything like that or did you home brew from scratch?

The mods I did were all unique. The approach was very similar to Robot Cantina's but this was before the arduino was a thing. I did it all with PIC 16F877A microcontrollers and discrete components with a smattering of borrowed sensors and machined parts. Basically made the mechanical Stanadyne pump work like the computer controlled pump from the 6.5 diesels of the time. That along with a simple transmission controller made for a much improved driving experience. It was a fun project.

When you multiply pennies by millions of units, it becomes real money!

Love the added tech. I built an all analog 5th injector controller back in the 80's when I intercooled a factory turbo car, also programmed an Electromotive TEC-II ECU when I added a turbo to another car, and I have programmed a few different microcontrollers, including Arduino. This gives me a good frame of reference for where you are going. On many factory turbo diesel engines, they use the boost pressure to directly limit the maximum fuel setting to limit smoke. Essentially, boost x rpm = air flow. Limit max fuel flow to match calculated air flow. With a blower, the boost is more predictable, but there is still some lag as it pressurizes the piping and intercooler. With a turbo, the pressure changes are more dynamic, but I still feel measuring boost would be a more accurate control for the fuel rack limiter.

Watching these latest videos, I think back to the mid-late '90s when car enthusiasts started to bemoan the use of EFI and electronics to control emissions.

Hey its another great episode, my Sunday morning is now complete. You did a wonderful job esplainin’ all of that technical mumbo jumbo stuff in a clear and understandable way. For some of us, pictures say more than words. What’s great about this channel is that what you are doing, any average Jimbo could do, as long as you have a 3D printer, small machine shop, mech-e background, video production tools with script writing, on-screen talent, micro electronic, and a strange knack for coding… See, any Jimbo off the street could do it too. Notice I didn’t mention the team of gnomes working the cameras, sometimes they are more trouble than not. You have pretty lofty goals with the engine control, but it is surely doable. Great job using discrete devices to keep your coding simple. It takes very little time to read a 10bit adc vs calculating pulses over time. I doubt that honda has antilock brakes but if it did, it would have all of the bits you would need to pick up road speed. I don’t think they use magnets and a hall sensor for antilock brakes, but instead a ferrous metal sensor with a spur gear. Back in the day I do remember some aftermarket cruse control that used magnets you would tie-wrap onto the drive shaft. In that case they didn’t care about actual ground speed, but just maintaining a frequency. You could do something similar with the axle shafts. You have to remember magnets are destroyed by heat and vibration. Something that little engine is known for.

By default, most of us think that electronically controlled engines are rocket science or completely proprietary designs. This project actually shows how far a DIY adventure can go with off the shelf things.... if you just keep thinking it through. Most "little engine in a car" experiments would not have pushed as many limits... and now you're using technology that's available to anyone to tune what may end up as a plausible commuter car. It's certainly fun to watch... and encourages many of us who like to tinker to take it up a notch.

Love the idea of an entirely analog engine that can be tuned on the fly by an onboard computer, but still works if the computer dies. I sometimes struggle to comprehend how electronics work and how they're designed, but you explain this stuff very well. I'll happily watch more videos about it if you make them!

I love the technical explanations, i feel like itll help loads of folks understand a bit whats going on under the hood of those expensive electronics boxes on their cars, too. Im here for the technical details. The mix of mechanicalnand electronic gadgets and doodads is why i stick around, personally 😎 excellent video this week, Jimbo!

I love this stuff. The only things I know about these electronical gizmos is what you've taught me. But it all makes sense to me. Thanks for expanding my knowledge.
