Raizer Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 What's this pulse wire? Presumably that means the crank wire? If so, when my test light is connected, shouldn't it pulse? It doesn't.The wires from your X4 "pulse" a 12v- signal to trigger the coil(s) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowlancer Posted December 13, 2006 Author Share Posted December 13, 2006 Ahhhh sweet, not getting a yellow light flashing anymore either so cas=not working I guess. Will check for pulse tonight and rewire CAS too. Cheers man, will let ya know how I get on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowlancer Posted December 14, 2006 Author Share Posted December 14, 2006 Rightio Got spark back! Had wired CAS up wrong, fucking stupid really. So, I have now got spark and fuel, but I;m confused about the timing side of things. If I set it at 10 degrees BTDC, that means wherever the rotor is in regards to the cap points, it will fire then right? So I want to make sure it is firing at plug 1? This is what I have set it as, but when I crank it over, and then check the rotor again at 10 degrees BTDC, it seems to be at a different spot, is that right? It's just changing from plug to plug with the spark still sparking at 10 degrees BTDC? I think that;s what it means but thought I'd check Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuel Posted December 14, 2006 Share Posted December 14, 2006 Remember the crank rotates twice for every rotation of the camshaft (and the distributor). You may find the crank will be at TDC (or 10deg BTDC) and the rotor will be 180 degrees out (ie pointing at number 4 cylinder instead of number 1 cylinder).

lowlancer Posted December 14, 2006 Author Share Posted December 14, 2006 Aha. That'll be it. So that's ok then, sweet. Just gotta wait till someone finishes work so I can sort this shit out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
