ratio under all climate and altitude conditions.
The ECU (computer) is mounted on the throttle body
thus eliminating the necessity of remote mounting the
ECU module and the need for an unsightly harness
draped over your engine. Several sensors are also inte-
gral to the throttle body assembly including the throttle
position sensor (TPS), manifold absolute pressure
(MAP), intake air temperature (IAT), and a fuel pressure
sensor.
Initial Programming: This simple procedure is per-
formed using the Handheld Controller. A laptop computer
is not required. This unit plugs into the throttle body ECU.
After a few initial inputs are made the Handheld Controller
can be removed or left connected. When connected, there
is a dashboard and gauges screen that will show engine
parameters in real time.
Fuel Delivery Systems: You may have chosen one of the
two optional Fuel Delivery System Kits from FiTech. In-
structions come with each kit. If using other fuel delivery
components you must use a 30-micron filter ahead of the
fuel inlet fitting on the Fitech throttle body.
Wide Band O2 Sensor: This is the key component of any
EFI system. Only one sensor is required. This sensor con-
tinuously monitors the exhaust gas mixture and sends FiTech #40003 Fuel Command Center

Wiring Chart
The Chart below lists all of the wires in the FiTech Go EFI
System. The wires are color coded and the wires that are
part of Harness "A" are all marked for where they go.
There are six wires in Harness "A." Four of them are re-
quired connections and two are optional. More detailed
connection information (Figures 9 through 11) is pro-
vided on later pages of these instructions.

The Following Wires Are Used In All Systems (6-Pin Connecctor)

Req./Opt. Wire Color Description

Required Red (Large) Main power. Connect this wire directly to the positive (+) terminal of the battery. This circuit
needs to be live even when the switch is off so that the self learning files are maintained. This is
fused with a 25 amp fuse.

Required Yellow/Black This wire connects to the Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor

Required Blue This is the tach input wire which triggers the system. It connects to the 12V Negative terminal of
the coil. On HEI distributor it connects to the "Tach" terminal on the distributor cap or connects
to a tach output on a CDI box.
Optional Black The black wire can provide the following function when grounded:
1. RPM kicks up when A/C is activated.

Required Orange (Large) Fuel Pump circuit. This wire provides 12V to the fuel pump and connects to the positive (+) ter-
minal on the pump. No relay is required.
Required 02 Harness This cable from ECU connects to the Wide Band Oxygen Sensor harness.
Required Wiring Harness A This connects to Connector "B" from ECU. See Figures 7 and 8 (Page 5).
Required White On/Off - Connect this wire to a switched 12V circuit. Must be on during both "Key On" and
"Cranking." DO NOT connect to the coil terminal when using an external CDI box such as an
MSD 6A or any other CD ignition.

Optional Yellow Fan Circuit #1. This wire goes to the ground terminal of the fan relay.
