The V8 Owners Forum -

Have you checked your crank pulley 0 deg mark lines up with your pointer when at piston 1 TDC? (Piston stop method) This is the first thing I would check. From experience mine was 10 deg out - and this will mean all your advance table is out. Then you need to set your MJ to a fixed to 10 deg advance...

Super, Stevie. thanks for the suggestion I am in the US about an hr west of Washington DC, older land rovers specially non defenders are uncommon, which is where I come in with my classic. seems I am one of the few in the us running a DIS conversion, the few guys with whom I have spoken at club meet...

Stevie, if I understand correctly this is what it may need 700 rpm 10 deg 1000rpm 15 deg 1400 rpm 20 deg 2k becomes 1800 @ 25 deg 2.4k becomes 2.2 @ 30 deg 3k becomes 2.8 @ 35 deg 3.6k becomes 3.2 @ 37 deg 4.6k becomes 3.6 @ 38 deg 5.6k to 6k max of 39 deg Please correct as needed, also all timing r...

on a related note, I was looking thru the install cd and maps, found that GM big block map is a good match for rover v8, versus rover v8 map, aside from a high redline of over 7k rpm and max advance of 52 deg at high rpm. quite curios and interesting. Stevie, thanks. let me review your post and visi...

allright gentleman, thanks for your contribution and input. I had some time to spend and weather was acceptable 50 deg F with light breeze. that being said I plugged the lap top to the vehicle and changed a few numbers around. the idle column was changed from 500 to 700 rpm, it made the idle much ha...

I have googled to nauseum and never came across your findings, thank you. I will try and remap sometime in the next week if health and time allows.
viewtopic.php?t=15725 I wish the table on this post was visible, I cannot see it. from description seems promising.

Thanks again.

the dizzy had a base timing of 10deg btdc, from factory recommended 8 deg btdc @ idle. I don't ever remember having checked the centrifugal advance thus can't say the max advance at "X" RPM. the engine has been there since 2008 but it has seen about 40,000 miles only, the distributor having been in ...

I miss understood the question, sorry it is throttle. yes I have calibrated a few times just for good measure, yes what I have on table is what engine sees and feeds back, all seems normal when driven at or about 30% load in city, once I merge in to highway traffic I need to keep light to medium thr...

Stevie, what i posted was a typed copy of the actual chart map this is what I see on the pc when I plug in and load, yes advance rpm and other relevant data is seen as well. load is left rpm is top and full load and or WOT I avoid them due to engine stress

i hope it is easy to understand, it looked good when typed but once submitted it becomes a jumbled mess. sorry

Ian thank you for the suggestion, engine management has been reset. below is the table I could not load, the 42 deg of advance i just there to fill a space, I never expect to see my engine reaching full load or 6500 RPM for any amount of time. please advise on corrections to be made. currently it is...

ERROR
Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reached.

I get this error message when loading a copy of my current map for review.

Good day to all. I am in the east coast of the US, I own a 95 classic LWB auto box, engine has been upgraded to a 4.6 and it runs a normal 4.2 cam shaft. bosh 3 electrode spark plugs with a .060 electrode gap. fuel system is the factory 14 cux, ignition system is trigger wheels megajolt JR lite EDIS...

14CUX uses spark signal from coil in order to pulse open the injectors, this explained in the EDIS instructions where the injector trigger wire is connected to all the coils thru diodes. tach signal is read thru the alternator so I did not explore EDIS on this regard. You've got me confused now. Me...
