So I made mention of my MJLJ in a few threads as of late which has seemed to generate some interest in my build/progress (?).

A little back ground on me: I have over 10 years of electronics/electrical trouble shooting and assemblyexperience form both high school, and the Coast Guard where I was an Avionics Technician. This is why I had no problem assembling the MJLJ unit. However, I am not a computer guy and programming is proving to be a HUGE PITA.

The build:
MJLJ uses EDIS which is a Ford distributorless electronic ignition system. The information for this part is available at http://picasso.org/mjlj/

To use the unit you will need a 36-1 toothed gear for the crank and a VR sensor. I am including pics of my pieces.

Here would be a good place to show your prowess in programming as I am lost. it seems that my USB--> serial adaptor is not working, or it could be the unit. More to come. Post pics here for discussion.

Pics are of the toothed gear installed and of the pully with it mounted separate.

A lot of people in MS land have had a lot of trouble with USB serial adapters. Some of them just don't work. Try searching on msefi.com and see if you can get any recommendations on adapters known to work.

It's good to see Picasso back up again. He vanished there for awhile, and I was afraid he'd withdrawn the product.

I'm on the fence about whether to use his thing and do ignition/CIS on my 6, or use the Megasquirt I have to drive the EDIS, and later use the Bitz racing parts to go EFI. Or, use the MS on the FIAT...
