Got the 123Ignition yesterday, I pushed all of my projects back!
"Sorry granny I'll get to those bearings on your heart/lung machine soon, I promise." Blocked out 3 hours for the removal and install. Added about an hour to charge the battery. Installed as expected, there is a spacer that is necessary for type 4, just slides over the dizzy shaft. I decided to route the wires and vacuum away from the fan so access to the vacuum nipple was easier, since the vacuum can is gone there's a lot more space. Followed the instructions but made the mistake of using the TDC 0* instead of the 27* as the basic timing point. I just walked the dizzy CCW until she started! Didn't do anything other than matched my timing with my idle, I let her run till she settled down. Just around the block once, ha ha the trailer hitching is GONE! Responsive throttle, man! Setting up a tuning session, nice 150 mile run up the California coast with the AFR meter. Mike |

Ok nothing has changed, I did nothing to the car except start it up.
Jeckell is back, took a 40+ mile run up the 14 fwy and back, not a single ping! Outside temp is 66*F with humidity of 75% Same Chevron gas, didn't add or change anything. So I don't believe it is a problem with timing, I don't believe it's a problem with lean mixture. It is definitely a problem with fuel and temperature. This could be an issue with the Temp Sensor I or as I suspect, ambient temps above 80*F with the current Winter/Summer fuel blend. So the 123 Ignition is so spot on it will bring all of the faults within your system to light! |
