Title: Start Damn You Start!
Post by: Pipes on June 29, 2004, 01:05:24 PM

Folks! Just a plee for help from ANYONE that has any experiance with Crank Fire Igntion Setups.  Sounded like a brilliant idea when I first began the build but now I'm ready to drop kick the damn thing!!

It simply will not get the timing right, again and again, I check the notching looks correct, check the cam and crank relationship, perfect, valves are all set, Coils fire flawlessly, plug wires are good, sparks to all cyclinders, crank sensor seems to pick up the signal.  I must have something wrong with the crank pully position or something... GAWD help!  Any Electro-Mechanics out there?
