I am looking for a way to mimic how a modern fuel injected car manages its fuel pump - usually by running the pump for a few seconds when they key is switched on, then using a tach signal (as an indicator the motor is running) to start the fuel pump up again.
Can anyone think of a way Megajolt could be used in this fashion? As many (most?) of us are using MJ in combination with a carb'd motor (or we'd probably be using Megasquirt!), so it seems like this would be a great thing be able to implement with the only computer in the car.
Any thoughts/ideas?
User output to run a fuel pump?

I have such config on my car, prior installing Megajolt. I am using a fuel pump relay from DAEWOO DAMAS (20Euro) , s-h BOSCH in-line fuel pump (15Euro) , MALPASSI rising-rate turbo carb fuel pressure regulator (50Euro), one-way in-line fuel valve(8E) , inertia switch from RENAULT-DACIA (10Euro) , in-line CHAMPION fuel filter (3 Euro) (this spring- add WEBER 32/36 DGAV - free, gift from a friend) and works great with MJ.
The DAEWOO relay have 4 pins: Ignition-key +12v ; Ground ; +12v to pump and Signal picked from diode tach adaptor. It starts pump for 2-3-4 seconds when ignition on , then stops and starts again during cranking and engine running. It stops when ignition signals not detected.
I have paralel fuel-pump feed via DAEWOO NEXIA/CIELO oil-pressure switch (10Euro) wich cut energy when oil pressure is low (engine off or defective).
