I think it starts better but I'm comparing it to the winter - it's hot here at the moment I don't really know what I'm looking for regarding timing - unless it misfires how can I tell if I've got the right setting or not? The table I had loaded used the distributor centrifugal settings from the manu...

First proper drive
Ventured out onto the open highway today. MAP readings are still very noisy, despite having a mig tip and a filter inline (although the filter is quite coarse - it's not a paper one). However, you can just about see that the load readings go up with RPM on the road so that's OK. I've tried filtering...

I also connected a timing gun and ran the engine on EDIS alone. It said my timing was 15 degrees so I corrected that in the software. However, I noticed that the timing gun was saying about 40 degrees when the laptop was showing me 18-20... perhaps it's a crappy timing gun because the engine is sta...

OK, after fabricating and installing a new starter mount, I set about wiring this thing in a bit better. It's still not perfect and the HT leads are a bit tight, but she runs (and seeing as I installed a relay... stops again too!) As suggested by Chris, I pushed a mig welding tip into the hose to ac...

I've tee'd into the brake servo feed. Between the T and the servo there is a non-return valve. I've temporarily disconnected the servo and turned the valve around to block it off I'm using a 2m length of silicone vacuum hose which I would have thought was flexible enough to damp the readings Starter...

OK, first of many questions - what is going on with my MAP?
I've just logged a short run of my engine but am very confused about the kPa readings. As expected, when the engine is not running, I get a value of around 100kPa (I've trimmed the zero rpm values from the attached graph). The values then sit at roughly 70kPa but DROP as the rpm increases - this is ...
