Re: Exploring FreeEMS for 50cc GY6 scooter

Does FreeEMS support communicating through a standard automotive ODB-II port ? I believe it's just a serial port running at a range of possible baud rates...? Does FreeEMS support logging faults or most/all data to some type of network connection to a tablet or pc ? I guess rsyslog or something of t...

Re: Exploring FreeEMS for 50cc GY6 scooter

Good idea Fred, to find out which pump is being used by the smaller bike manufacturers. The one I mentioned was for use on a Ducati 1100, two or four cylinder not sure. The current draw numbers you mention, 2 Amps or so, that's totally doable on this bike Crossing off the eco company's products from...

Re: Exploring FreeEMS for 50cc GY6 scooter

1) Battery capacity and/or charging capacity to run the system sustainably 2) EFI fuel pump physically small enough and electrically efficient/lean enough to supply the engine and conform with 1) 3) Injectors with sufficiently small flow to not make tuning near-impossible 4) Instrumenting your engi...

Exploring FreeEMS for 50cc GY6 scooter

I have one of the very popular carburetor based 50cc GY6 Chinese scooter, made in 2012, itself a clone of the wildly successful Japanese Honda Elite GY6 engine from the early 1980s. It's hard starting in especially in colder weather. It usually stalls out the first 5 or 10 starts before it'll stay r...
