so if you're not starting and timing IS right, then you might have something wrong with either your ignition ORDER (meaning you've got #1 right, but perhaps in the process you've accidentally transposed the other cylinders). verify with the "test" method on the ignition outputs visual page.
if thats all good, lets have a look at fueling. are the plugs getting wet? best bet, send me a datalog with the engine cranking over. Also, send me a triggerlog so I can verify all is good there (tools->record trigger log, send me the file that ends with '.triggerlog' in your vems directory).
To make things less confusing regarding getting TDC after the trigger to line up in an acceptable rage (60-130) the best way to go is to change the first trigger tooth. that way your ignition order doesn't have to move to accomplish the same goal.
hope that helps.
Yeah I was using 1 as a value, I didn't realize it needed to be reset every time. Will do next time.
Also will do with the test and trigger log. So I can just hit test and I should see spark in that plug? That's cool.
I believe the plugs are getting wet but I didn't pull them. Kinda dumb I guess but it seemed like it was getting fuel because when we unplugged them I got a backfire once, which we presumed was from residual fuel.
SO when you say change the first trigger tooth you mean adjust the slider (or the # on the left under "first trigger tooth" lol). So I can adjust that, leave the ignition order, and keep my TDC after the trigger happy between 60-127.
Cool... I think. I'll start with a fresh head tomorrow and get some logs first and do some verifying.
