Thread: V8 VN Commodore engine loom?

What i did last time needed to find out something about my sons comodore,i went to the local library,and they had a full set of manuls.They wouldnt let them out,but would let you read them& photocopy the pages that were needed.

Good luck

I am interested in what you are doing. I have often thought about retrofitting Holden EFI V8 engine management to my 3.5 EFI Range Rover.

It would be interesting to see what benefits there would be with regard to power and economy just from controlling fuelling and spark more accurately.

The megasquirt site has quite a bit on GM sensor values.
The Chev stuff is like the Holden stuff AFAIK.

Yes, agree about the local library. My local auto shops...all 10 of them or more told me they stopped selling the manuals because the library was taking all their business and people would just stick their greasy hands on them when they couldnt' work out what to do they'd nick over to the shop.

I had to mail order my manual for a holden after thinking it would be real easy to get it.

I'd suggest getting the "MAx Eller" book as it is a bit better then all the Haynes ones and more in depth which is probably what you want.

At home (will be back tomorrow) I have 4 EFI Manuals which cover VN through to VT V8 Commodores. They also have a lot of other stuff from the same era.

I can look in them for specific information if you require it.

Thanks BigJon...
I'll post up some pics of what we are up against here tomorrow and will try to point out what I need to find out to get this thing to work.

I tried to buy a manual in Dubbo but none had any detail on this part
If I get one off ebay may be the same.
