Static timed at 10°, no mechanical advace, the ECU controls spark (the ECU does not add advance from 0 rpm to 500 rpm)
Car starts up fine, once I get the revs to 2500 I get spark scatter...we cut a hole in the dizzy cap and confirmed this In the picture, the rotor turns clockwise. White marks are open windows for the trigger, red mark is the trigger....black marks on the body of the dizzy are the locations of the leads for the sparkplugs. I changed the location of the LED (red mark) and it did not seem to help at all...... Attached image(s) |

I have not tried it yet, but I'm 99% sure this method here will get me going in the correct direction......luckly from doing research on FI systems, I have come to find out just how close each system is to each other.....(it's scary, how many of them are very, very similar...can you say reverse engineered or engineers that have jumped ship to start thier own company??? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) )
I'm using a Link EFI, these instructions are from Haltech (yes, Link does have instructions, but I think they are "lacking" or at least to someone with a pea-sized brain like me (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/headbang.gif) ) Anyways, for those following along at home, this how it's done.....
