4. Improper electrical grounds: “EFI systems don’t work properly if the grounds don’t go back to the battery’s Negative post.” Sensors operate under minute voltage variations, so any voltage fluctuations, resistance, or drop can introduce erroneous readings. Remember, the circuit’s ground-side is part of the total circuit length, and hence, contributes to resistance and voltage drop. A standard chassis-ground won’t cut it.

.....at the end of the read was the top 4 EFI mistakes this was one.......here is the link to the article.......................

.....I hope this shines a light on something we are not seeing...Rod Im sorry for your family's lost at this time........God speed and good luck......
That was an interesting read. It would be so cool if we could do that with the FiTech unit but from what Ray and Rod have found out about the data logging it's very doubtful, maybe their next generation will be better equip to do something like that.
