Hey Lance, you should post some info on the low emission USPS conversions you are involved with on EFI 101. I would love to hear more.

Those are for Motorcycles so they cost 2X as much. At least. :lol:

Time after spark is also not the setting you want.
(unless you have an old SAAB with Trionic system)

If you have recent firmware the little tooltips (? boxes) are quite useful these days.

That's been done, this one was just getting an 86 Cabby back on the road.
(Purpose: so I can drop the motor in the square and fab the AC bracket properly)

Set it to 10 degrees fixed advance and take a trigger log/post.

I defer to IGN4 users as to dwell settings.
