Re: The beginnings of a Megasquirt how-to guide

pretty sure due to it having 2 electromagnets it's able to act as a stepper motor, by energizing one coil more than the other it can turn in small increments. Or it can hold a position.

Not sure why it isn't a spring/always closed or always open then controlled to idle the car as that would be less complex. Then again, subaru did a lot of things in a complicated way such as the window regulator system haha.
