Engine Break In Period + ITB Installation Considerations

Postby yabaiani » Wed May 06, 2020 9:35 am

So I had a question. My engine is almost done being rebuilt fully and I wanted to know what everyone's thoughts were on the proper engine break in period/process. I was told to run it for 200 miles with break in zinc oil, then come back for an oil change, more break in oil for 500 miles, then regular oil change for that.

I wanted to also install my ITBs and get my Link G4+, dyno and tune done as well. So is it dangerous for the motor to install the ITBs pre-break in and try to tune it? Should I hold off? Here is my full engine build spec below if anyone needs to know. Thank you!

I have used the technique described in the mototune article with great success.
Get the engine up to operating temperature by running at a high idle with gentle
movement of the throttle to vary the rpm... throttle on... throttle off... throttle on...
throttle off. Check for leaks and anything loose.

Then drive successive cycles of acceleration and deceleration (engine braking)
increasing the load and rpm in each cycle. Avoid extended idling and long periods
of light load constant speed driving. Use the gears and don't lug the engine by
operating at high load and low rpm. Everyone has their own version that they
like better, but the above works for me :)

Your problem is that I'm guessing you don't have a tune for the ECU and you won't
be able to drive the car until your tuner has spent some time on the dyno to get
a basic tune sorted. However, there is a pretty good chance that your tuner has
done this many times... put a tune together while the car is on the dyno and
run the engine in at the same time. Talk to him.

More or less agree with this... although I recommend "drive successive cycles of acceleration and deceleration" these start around 2000-2500, are done in 3rd... and if you can get away with it 4th gear (moderately high loads). You do these about a half dozen times. What you are doing is bedding in the rings.


As far as how many miles with break-on oil - if the rings aren't seated within 200 miles... more break-in oil isn't going to help.

Which break-in oil do you recommend? I was thinking Lucas Break In Oil, but didnt know if I should use SAE 30, or 20w-50 break in oil. Any thoughts?

I used this... http://www.penriteoil.com.au/products/1 ... 40-mineral
... and then this... http://www.penriteoil.com.au/products/h ... 60-mineral
... until I had about 1000km on the engine and then changed to my old favorite Castrol
Magnatec 10W-40semi-synthetic.

You can use whatever brand you like for running-in so long as it is high zinc mineral oil.

I guess if you can't find a running-in oil with the zinc already added, you could
use straight mineral oil with that additive. Just make sure you get a mineral oil
without any friction reducing additives. Oils with friction reducing additives and
synthetic oils impede the bedding in process and should only be used after
running-in has been completed.

I used the Innovate LC-1 (now LC-2) WBO2 controller and DB gauge kit...

Image

Worked fine for me. Sent serial data to my ECU and analog signal to the gauge.
I logged engine performance and AFR out of the ECU with a USB connection.

But there are plenty of options available and everyone has their favorite :)

Damn !!!! That is some nice hardware !!!! What is the throttle plate (diameter) size in them ?
I hope you got some nice o-ringed bungs to block up the injector openings in the head.

I see that you have 550cc injectors in your list. They are kind of big for a 1600cc N.A. engine
and that might be a problem when it comes to getting a nice idle. Still, with that gear under
the hood a lumpy idle is pretty much mandatory :)

They are 45mm. I also bought the injector plugs from Techno Toy Tuning.

And Barry mentioned that the Xspurt injectors have a lot of control with my Link G4+ ECU.

Yeah, I had a look and those injectors are slightly modified Bosch high resistance
injectors, and they should be good down to very low opening times. Don't lose the
dead time (latency) information supplied with the injectors as that will be needed
when setting up your ECU.

With my new ITB setup, Bary said that I didn't need an idle control valve and that I could tune that into the cold start of the ecu to run timing higher and more fuel.

Does anyone have thoughts on this? I dont mind doing that so that when the car fires up, its a smooth idle. But if I did need one, I dont know what options would even be there.

If you want your car to start and idle like any modern car you will need an idle-up valve (ISCV).
Idle speed control with ignition timing will work fine once the engine is warm or while it is
warming up, but it is not enough to get a cold engine started. For that you need extra air and
that's the reason every engine since forever has had some means of getting extra air into the
engine while cranking and immediately after it fires up.

You can get extra air in several different ways... thermostatic valve (OEM AE86 type), simple
ON/OFF solenoid valve, mechanical device to crack the throttle open (choke), PWM solenoid
valve, drive by wire throttle, or just open the throttle by using the gas pedal while cranking
(flood clear mode). If you have a racecar with a high base idle speed you can start it with a lot
of fuel and cracked throttles, and Barry may have been thinking along those lines.

But if you have a road car, unless you like keeping the engine alive by playing with the throttle
for a couple of minutes after starting, you should have an ISCV. Big question is... does your ITB
intake manifold have provision (tapped holes/spigots) in each runner for introducing idle air ?
And likewise, provision for sampling manifold vacuum to get a MAP signal for your ECU ?

Yes on the under side there are holes off each port. Barry said I would use a 1/8” npt fitting to barb off each and plumb into a vacuum chamber. Then off that chamber I can run map signal, etc and idle valve is T off just 1 of the lines.

Barry said Bosch makes a good one, but I don’t know which one to buy since they make a few different ones it looks like...

https://www.autohausaz.com/pn/818_20_91 ... gJHyfD_BwE

Bosch 0280140545 Original Equipment Idle Air Control (IAC) Valve https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001CNZCMA/re ... VEb21DN07M


Just to ask, how would I even install this and get it wired up? Do I need to modify my spare loom and hook it into the ECU? Or do I need to cut the connector and splice it in?

I did a quick search but couldn't find any tech data on those valves. They both look as if
they would work, but you need to confirm that they are 3-wire suitable for PWM control.
I used the stock 20V 4AGE ISCV and that has three wires. The centre wire is key switched
12V and the outer two are RSC (PWM to close) and RSO (PWM to open). The RSC and RSO
wires are connected to two PWM capable outputs on your ECU. One output is inverted.

You should be connecting to Aux Out1 and Aux Out2 and I believe the help file in your ECU
will assist with the setup.

If you have one tapping in each intake runner you need to find the barb fitting that has
the largest internal diameter and run individual hoses to your vacuum collector. These
hoses will serve the dual purpose of allowing idle air into the manifold and averaging the
vacuum signal. From the vacuum collector run individual hoses to your brake booster,
ISCV and MAP sensor. Something like this...

Image

Select suitable size barbs for the collector to match the MAP sensor hose and the hoses
from the manifold. Likewise a larger barb to suit the brake booster hose and the ISCV.
Put a pulsation damper in the MAP sensor hose. Locate the ISCV in a convenient place
either on the engine or on the chassis. Attach a small filter to the inlet side of the ISCV.
You can tee a hose to the FPR off the MAP sensor hose.

That's about it :)

I believe they are suitable for 3 wire (especially the one from amazon for $138 USD). And I think I understand everything that you’re saying, but in the pulsation damper, where do I find that? I’ve searched for a few, but didnt know which one to get. Do you have any links you can send?

Also, after I get the ISCV, do I still need that other thing that you mentioned to get extra air?

Here it is...

Image

It's a small plastic can with a small plastic spigot on either side found in the MAP
sensor hose on many later model cars. It has a bit of foam inside and you can blow
thru it both ways. Not to be confused (as has happened) with a check valve that
looks the same but you can only blow thru it in one direction. Mainly an OEM part
so your local Toyota parts dept should be able to find you one.

If you are referring to what I called a barb fitting, that is just the adapter with a
thread on one end and a hosetail on the other. Often the vacuum collector will
come with the barbs, otherwise you should be able to buy what you need at any
speed shop or auto parts store. Just make sure you get the right thread profile so
take the collector with you when you go shopping. BSP and NPT do match in a
couple of sizes but not all, so make sure they thread in at least halfway before they
start to get tight.

I think you should be OK with either of those Bosch valves. The 3-wire valves should
be rotary solenoids like this diagram (actually 2-wire but works the same)...

Image

The 3-wire has two coils and when each coil is driven by a separate PWN output with
one output inverted, the solenoid is pulled by one coil and pushed by the other. Make
sure that the valve comes with the matching wiring connector. This type of Bosch valve
is common on older BMW's so should be easy to grab a bargain :) I think that the hose
outlets on the valve are either 3/4" or 20mm so you can probably get a screw-in hosetail
for your vacuum collector that steps down to 5/8" or 1/2" as 3/4" is more than you will
need for a 1600cc engine.

I keep looking for that pulsation damper online and cannot seem to find even an example for one jondee. I keep seeing the check valve which you said is not it.

This is the actual part used on the AE111 (but not an AE111 diagram)...

Image

It is also used on a whole bunch of JDM Toyotas. It's full name is...
23265 FILTER, GAS, NO.1
90917-11009 1 $39.58


These dampers are also commonly found in a straight line in-out configuration and
anything you can find at a dealer or parts store that is used in a MAP sensor line will
do just fine. It is not a critical part, and you can run without one. But it does help
smooth out the intake manifold pressure pulsation and clean up your MAP signal.

For what it's worth I just pocketed a few different ones when searching Pick and
Pull for other parts. No-one really buys them as they don't wear out. Just be aware
that your local parts store will pull up a bunch of parts under that part number and
most of them will be wrong :) Make sure you keep your receipt !!!

Bit more of a pancake shape but same thing :)

Could easily bend up a manifold with the appropriate fittings to link all the runners, booster, and map sensor and add stainless steel pot scrubbers (commonly used in reflux distillation heads - and kitchens, lol)

Some spare aluminum/steel sheet and free time with a welder.

Basically just building a muffler for pressure pulses.

Got it. I’ll buy that one. I see it on eBay for $37 shipped which is good. Now on the connector for the idle control, I was thinking about this and then figuring out where to splice it into the loom.

I have no idea how this custom loom works, so I can only comment in general.
There should be one wire from every pin in the ECU plug and you will need to locate
the wires for Aux Outputs 1 and 2. I believe that you must use these PWM capable
outputs for controlling your ISCV. Then you will need to check if the wires are long
enough to route from the ECU mounting location to the ISCV mounting location.

You will likely have an engine loom that has wires for the gauge temp sensor and
ECU temp sensor running down the intake side of the engine. The MAP sensor and
ISCV wires can most likely be run together with temp sensor wires. You will also
need to run a key switched 12V supply to the ISCV. Depending on how your wiring
is setup, this 12V could likely came from the same relay that powers up the 12V
supply to the COP's.

Image

The ISCV will need some kind of mounting bracket or clamp arrangement to hold
it securely in position. And that position should be reasonably close to both the
vacuum collector and ITB's. So maybe there is a spot on the intake side firewall
or inner guard ?

Got it Jondee. I’ll take some photos of my loom here pretty soon and post it up!
