Great videos, thanks for your contribution to the miata community!

@Seandoestech 7 лет назад

Thanks! Love your build too... :)

@Devion702 7 лет назад

lol i love that you yoinked his sensor mid-night.

@Seandoestech 7 лет назад

haha - yeah were friends, he wouldn't mind. Still doesn't know, lol!

@ashnyc90 7 лет назад

subbed, don't give up.. keep going you'll get there. Hopefully it's something obvious and small!

@headtop6235 7 лет назад

What are you using to monitor your the vvt angle?

@koolerthanapolarbear 7 лет назад

gaah that must be so frustrating, hope you sort it out soon

@Iseekoutthetruth 5 лет назад

I have watched a lot of your videos and learning a lot, thanks for making them. what software are you using on your computer for your mazda?

@Vaccin3Gamingl33t 5 лет назад

Diesel Oil usually helps with valve tick as well since they're hydraulic valves

@Seandoestech 5 лет назад

Earlier engines. The VVTs are solid lifters.

i did the rotella mmo combo for years i think my miata only likes it.

@ChutneyInc. 2 года назад

hence the reason im here. car sat for a few months and the normal oil is probly gunked in places

@stevenladich428 7 лет назад

Love your vids! What interfacing are you using to display engine management on you dash / head unit?

@charlesmcgehee3227 6 лет назад

Hilarious move pulling your neighbor's solenoid. Gonna keep watching to see you solve this. Mine is just pulling that ticking noise and I may need to replace the actuator. I'm sure you are aware of the mazda bulletin stating that a little pin and its receptacle wear out.

@MiataMods 7 лет назад

Wow what's that display you got in your car? How cool is that! Btw, please use a tripod or something when you're driving.. just be safe!

@Seandoestech 7 лет назад

MiataMods the display is a pioneer appradio headunit that mirrors my smartphone. I connect to my ecu via Bluetooth on my phone then operate it with the appradio.

@MiataMods 7 лет назад

That's really cool! I just saw the last part of your video where you did use a camera mount so never mind :-) Good luck with the VVT issues, I hope you can find the problem!

Seafoam does work

@steezey_mods 7 лет назад

what is your oil pressure when it fails ?

@Seandoestech 7 лет назад

hristo iliev don't know.I only have the stock pressure gauge that doesn't give pressure, just a needle that sits at 5/8.

@steezey_mods 7 лет назад

You can install one of the older ones that read presaure. If you feel like it. But i would chek your oil pressure make shure its in spec. Turbo miattas love to wear oil pump gears

@steezey_mods 7 лет назад

Supper high oil temp would aslo cause it to fail

@Seandoestech 7 лет назад

Yeah oil pressure and temp gauge is on the list...

@steezey_mods 7 лет назад

Ok cool i wish you luck. Cant wait to see what you find

@fiatmonkey 7 лет назад

are you sure ecu doesn't tell the VVT solenoid to back off when engine temp reaches normal operation?

@Seandoestech 7 лет назад

Great question, yes pretty sure it's not in the ECU settings. There is a VVT settings parameters and it does include a coolant active temperature settings - meaning "work only if coolant above XXX degrees" but it's set for -40 deg. F, so can't be that.

@fiatmonkey 7 лет назад

Boosted Miata curious; are you letting the engine warm up before testing ? I mean keep rpm under 2.5-3k until engine is warm? on the k series engine with the vtec solenoid will put engine in limp mode or not allow vtec to engage till engine temp is normal. Yes I know totally different engines but similar functions.

@Seandoestech 7 лет назад

Yes - it's actually operating temp when I drive it and it works, but for only a few miles / minutes each time. When I overlay the coolant temp with the VVT angle in my data log, there is no correlation actually. It has more to do with time driven. I'm wondering if it's oil pressure / oil temp related?

@davidbarlow7955 6 лет назад

what are you using for monitor?

@terryloweh 7 лет назад

@thecarpassionchannel greg, help the guy

@Seandoestech 7 лет назад

I'd love his help, but he has yet to ascend to the hallowed halls of the VVT club just yet.

@REDOX-wb5cw 7 лет назад

What year was VVT introduced to the Miata

@Seandoestech 7 лет назад

Micah Frost 2001 model

@charlesmcgehee3227 6 лет назад

2001

@muthagoose00 7 лет назад

any resolution to this?

@Seandoestech 7 лет назад

muthagoose00 actually it was working, then stopped again. I'm going to do an oil pressure test next.

@sethalton205 7 лет назад

I was just wondering if there's something retarding the vvt timing on the engine's behalf. I come from tuning Audi's and some of the maps in S4/A6's do some pretty crazy shit.

@Seandoestech 7 лет назад

+seth alton no, the vvt settings are identical to when it was working before. I'm pretty sure it is the vvt cam gear I used because my original one was lost when I was rebuilding the engine.
