Today Blackbox-Soloutions have added to there ever growing list of functions to the MSV2, the fantastic option to prime the FBH dosing pump and also make a run test of the heater if you wish afterwards.
Ive tested this function today without fault and i think it will probabaly be on the next MSV2 software update for owners of the MSV2 kit and be available for the D3 and D4 cars.
Keep up the good work peeps at BBS

It should be as soon as the next MSV2 update is out which im unsure on as yet, may be Colin will see this thread and comment.
I know they dont like to make a public update every time just 1 feature is added so i would assume it will come with a bunch of new stuff

No issues with the video here
I notice on the D4 they have removed the air intake silencer, do you get any extra "roar"

Wiggs , i think that was a couple of doubles lol, id primed it and fired it that many times it was well choked.
I may speak with colin and see if we can get a 235 second prime added also.
The standard set up primes for 100 seconds then fires for 135 seconds.
What do you think about a double time run test to help clear the heater right out of cobwebs etc ?

Yes it does seem to or infact does last longer than 100 seconds, but its supposed to be only 100 so ill may be do a time test now someone else hav mentioned it.
short test and a long test buttons sounds good if its possibile, i think in some cases its nice to let it run longer and clear the cobwebs out from it proplery after a prime or long time stood inactive.
