Got a good runner now, I'm not sure if it was due to the plugs (LINK recommended resistor type) or if it was due to my terrible and sloppy engine wiring harness.
Mike Rose came by yesterday and gave me hand with the harness, much easier with 2 people to route the wires thru the car. LINK ECU is now mounted inside the cabin...I removed I think 6 wires completly from the harness which I have no use for in my application, I also shortened the other wires by about 3 feet. Still figuering out the tuning thing....I think I might end up putting a TPS on it since the vac. only is a PITA at idle since my vac. signal seems to vary from 35kPa to 65kPa each time I release the throttle (1.7 intake system with stock throttle body) Car starts and idles fine, I tried to drive it up the street and it's too lean...not sure if it was during acceleration or just under load at that particlur MAP setting..... I'm a happy camper and I'll be even happier when I figure out how to tune the computer better (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/MDB2.gif) |

After having an ignition related failure way back in November, I have not touched my 914...until last night....in order to get the ignition correct, the trigger needs to be 10° BTDC. The Mallory rotor has a fixed trigger wheel relative to the electrode so I machined new slots and will fill in the old ones.
Hopefully you can see the 5° marks on the rotor..the little red dot is a laser for finding edges or centerlines. Blue arrow is new slot... |
