E85
Conversion only.
Ethanol handled in the ECU. Two orders: E85, or E85+ (with Stage 1).
Ethanol needs clearly more flow than petrol (often around 30%). Without an adapted file the engine runs too lean once closed-loop cannot keep up. Here the fix is in the ECU, not via a box on the injectors.
We revisit injection, closed-loop, cold start, advance within engine margins, and diagnostics that throw for no reason. In France the “road” conversion under the approved framework is in principle not the file: you inform the customer. We deliver the binary; use stays workshop-side.
Choose by what the customer wants: conversion only, or conversion with Stage 1 optimisation.
Conversion only.
Conversion + Stage 1 in one go. Check injectors and pump before selling.
After flashing, it is good practice to check ethanol behaviour: fuel trims (STFT/LTFT), lambda and fuel supply. Build that into your workshop process.
After writing, check fuelling corrections (trims) at different rpm and loads. Out-of-range values point to injection, pump or read issues.
Validate cold start, pull-away and loaded running. Note any abnormal behaviour before handing the vehicle back.
If trims stay out of range despite a sound build, reopen the ticket with the logged values. A tweak may be needed.
Without trim checks, you deliver a blind conversion. Build that control into your workshop process.
Workshop checks before ordering.
Injector headroom, fuel system condition, DI HP pump, ignition. No hardware headroom = the file will not compensate. Expect higher volumetric consumption; the case is pump price. Cold start often tricky, especially off DI.
State E85 or E85+. If flow is tight: note injectors / pump.
Standard portal flow, with the right line chosen.
Conversion only, or conversion with Stage 1.
Upload the original read and confirm the category.
Flash the file once ready.
Test and log fuelling corrections before customer delivery.
E85 = conversion. E85+ = conversion + Stage 1.
No. Assess vehicle by vehicle. Not for diesel.
Checking STFT/LTFT and lambda after flash helps validate. Good practice, not a guarantee.
Not for this offer: everything goes through the ECU.
