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......
