James Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Just thought I'd preview this here :)http://www.mintylamb.co.uk/suneedle2/?n=AAQ,AAN,BDQAfter 6 years I thought it needed an update.Am just adding a menu for selecting needles and all done. (for now you can add them manually by changing the URL)James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparky_spit Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Well, I've waited long enough for someone else to ask the simple question..... I suppose I've got to be the first to appear stupid.What do the figures on the Y axis represent and how do you use it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted July 6, 2010 Author Share Posted July 6, 2010 Y axis is the diameter of the needle.If you imagine holding the needle up horizontally - with the thickest part (piston end) on the left and the needle pointing towards the right - that's what you can see on the graph.You might wonder why it's kind of backwards - well that's because it's easier to imagine it getting richer as the needle gets thinner - so the line goes upwards.James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TedTaylor Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Very neat James - well done(clap). Gives a nice 'pictorial' impression of how these needles alter the flow of fuel through the jet. I know there are lots of them out there but I have the SU needle chart booklet somewhere in my archive in case anyone wants info from it - does the same as the graph but uses numbers and I believe covers most of the needles that SU produced.Ted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted July 6, 2010 Author Share Posted July 6, 2010 Thanks Ted -I'm pretty sure my database has most of the needles - there are a hell of a lot in there. Mine has the numbers if you roll over each point.I'll get on to the interface that lists all the needles this weekend :)Once that is done I may make some kind of interface to look for richer or leaner needles - but not sure how to do that yet - at a specific needle station or over a range of stations... need to have a good think about how to solve that.James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted July 10, 2010 Author Share Posted July 10, 2010 The uprated graph is now being used in the original app - so needle selection works now :)http://www.mintylamb.co.uk/suneedle/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted July 11, 2010 Author Share Posted July 11, 2010 **UPDATE** now has HS8 needles and it's gone METRICIt also automatically adjusts the range of the graph so you gain a bit more resolution Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
