I figured someone has tried to locate the wheel on the end of the crank sitting out in front of the fan instead of behind it.
Yea? Nea? Ideally, it would have to be balanced perfectly (along with the rest of the rotating assembly) and have to be made as light as possible. This way the sensor could be mounted on a bracket on the outside of the fan housing. The alt. belt could be a hassle to replace, but if the bracket is designed correctly, it can be removed and replaced without messing up the alignment with the crank wheel sensor. Attached image(s)

QUOTE(Mueller @ Oct 8 2003, 11:57 PM) Dave, Why don't you like the wasted spark? Electromotive and just about everyone else uses it?? Yep I think I'll chime in on this statment, Mike is 100% correct. There's nothing wrong with the wasted spark system. Not only does most of the aftermarket FI use it, but also a large number of auto makers (mine are GM coils) use wasted spark. Some guys act as if wasted spark ignition and batch fired FI is so low tech, and its not. Your MS is batch fired (two banks but it's still batch fired) right? Looking for the sequential holy grail can be expensive, time consuming and the end result will be not worth it. End of rant. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |
