Hello everyone,

I'm having a problem converting an Audi A3 1.8t to E85.

I modified the KRKTE to 0.26 and added 4 degrees of ignition advance on the entire KFZW 1 and 2, but the engine stalls at startup due to the mixture being too rich.

I then modified the KRKTE to 0.23, but I noticed that the engine had some knocking. So I reset the ignition advance to its original value and modified the KRKTE to 0.20, but the mixture is too rich according to the ECU.

If anyone has any experience with this engine and could help me, I would be grateful.

No logs, no list of hardware changes, no relevant information what so ever just a pointless story. Nice.
