Seems odd to recommend MegaJolt. When mentioning the desire to avoid electronics.
I know, it's just that needs must. Would hate to use a dizzy in a 1998 vehicle and use the wrong cover for a 4.6 at that.
I've read through some Megasquirt tuning threads which have begun to put me off using aftermarket EFI due to complications with dialling everything in.
Couldn’t agree more on not using a dizzy, I hate the things. However I don’t like the idea of using EDIS either, mainly due to using an old piece of kit which is difficult to source in the UK.
I tried using the. Nodiz system, unfortunately I couldn’t get it working successfully so can’t really give a recommendation but I know at least one other who got it working apparently successfully.
In the end I used a Megasquirt 2 which I happened to have available and was set up to fire the coils directly. Bit of a waste having all that unused potential but I already have the fuelling under control. I’d definitely advise looking at non-EDIS systems.

Well, jetting a carb from scratch ain't an easy job either. Rather more difficult than tuning an ECU, I'd say.
But at least when you jet a carb you know it will never be 100% so presumably set out with low expectations!

As for how long it takes water to start cleaning.....LOL
around 21mins there is an example. But it's all worth watching, these guys do crazy stuff.
