Oops. You're right, Craig. It's been so long since I've done one that I forgot about that.

If this is a bank to bank unit and you've got a crank trigger, all you should care about on the distributor is if the rotor is pointed at #1 when the motor is at tdc. If it were a sequential unit and you were using the cam sync signal out of the distributor, then yes we'd have to worry about...

I agree with Craig. Blue goes to white wire on MSD and red goes to switched 12v. Should start right up.

Anytime, Justin. Timing trim is easy. Set the far right to 7 and ramp down to the left to 0. You'll end up left to right at 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 , 5, 6, 7 with a smooth line going up.

Justin, Some things jump out at me about your program. 1. You don't have enough timing at the idle cells in my opinion. I usually bump this up to 30 or so. This in itself will lean the idle mixture out. 2. No timing trim at idle- timing trim helps to stabilize the idle much like the...

Interesting.....those are really high ve #'s at idle. Usually we have em down around 40 or so.

By going to the 3 bar, though, you've lowered the resolution vertically. With a 2 bar sensor, you have 0, 20, 33, 45, 59, etc. With a 3 bar you have 1, 21, 40, 60, 79, etc. The numbers aren't the same. Fast keeps the same VE #'s in each cell when you change from 2 to 3 bar sensors, though...

hahaha. speed? Not this one! It's a Compaq Armada 1700 32mb Pentium 100mhz circa 1998. You can't kill it, though! It's hit the dash at least 8 times after forgetting to lock it down before a run and pulling the chute, been dropped out of the truck door at least a half dozen times onto...

Interesting. I've been using the windows version since late 2000. I've had three different copies since then and have worked on multiple cars and never seen this issue. I've been known to do exactly as you're reporting too. Wonder what's different about mine, that's allowing me to not see...

Blake, The ignition will send a spark to whatever path is easiest for it. If you have plug wires with an open, the coil will arc over to its own body(or whatever is close) from it's main terminal. It will also do this with high resistance.

Yo, Cope! Whatsa happening? An idle surge will be three things......a/f ratio, ve and/or timing. What's the timing like around where it idles? What af ratio? I find that I have to idle most stuff fairly rich....say 12.5:1. It's trial and error. Try changing the af lower at the idle spots and...

LOL, Jon Dell. Dude, I don't know why it works. It's magic or something. Actually, I like Craig's theory. We'll have to do some experimenting on Big Strong Tony's car here in a week or so. I don't know where he turns WB control on in his setup, but I think we'll have to try a few things out.

I guess one thing I should clarify is that I'm on the 2 step for only 1 second generally, so that may have something to do with it. I do see the o2 catch it, but I guess it's quick enough that it doesn't really matter.

I've still got the original sensor with the box I bought in the summer of 98.

I know Craig. Everyone always tells me that, but I've got three cars I'm working on right now that it all works great on. I've got very similar programs for them all, though. In fact, we've done at least 10 of these cars with VERY similar setups and very similar programs that all came from...
