Re: Shrinking Dwell

Hello,

Oups, I forget to explain that I switched my probe in X10 for the VRin signal. The value for the green signal has to be multiplied by 10. So the tach pulse is 4v p-p and the noise around 200 mV p-p.
The mode 1 of LM1815, is adaptative. Input Arming Threshold is depending of the amplitude of ...

Re: Shrinking Dwell

I fixed my problem!!!
Look at the scope of VRin and VRout signal of the crank sensor (input 2) during cranking : A lot of false triggers.
The VR board, i add, for the crank sensor is based on LM1815*. For this circuit, it's possible to choose different modes and different 'input arming threshold ...

Re: Shrinking Dwell

Last Update : Advance mesure with strobe during Cranking is 41° (my setpoint is 8°). I just do the test one time.
I Hope that this information will be helpful.

Re: Shrinking Dwell

Ok, i made a mistake with my scope AC vs DC!
Finally the 2 VR signals are clean, and i can not see any difference when the advance is good or when there is an offset.
I confirm now, the problem, a lot of time : I start the motor, MT gauge and strobe are not agree. The offset is constant and stable ...

Re: Shrinking Dwell

Thanks again for your help.
The answers to your questions:
-I always have used ‘calculated advance’.
-My cranking RPM is around 300 rpm, my idle is @850 rpm.
-When MT gauge and strobe measurement are not agree, it's true for all RPM .I do the test by setting all the spark table cells to 8°. I ...

Re: Shrinking Dwell

Hello again,

I have a new amazing issue with my Porsche 944 Megasquirted in dual spark mode. Sometimes an offset of around -30° is added to the advance read on megatune. Example, at idle, the advance read on Megatune gauge, is 8° but the advance read with the strobo is 39°. When i do a 'burn to ...

Re: Shrinking Dwell

Thanks for you analysis, i plan to buy a 2F audio capa in the next day to finalize my installation.

But, i think i fixed my issue. I had tach loss at always fixed rpm mostly at 1700, 3400rpm. Signal measurement with oscilloscope shows me that the crank sensor has the bad polarity. The logic output ...

Re: Shrinking Dwell

Merci beaucoup!
Thanks!!
Explanation was clear and now...
It works fine with Trig. Offset = -30° (before -301.5) and Delay Teeth = 30 (before 0) ...No more dwell shrink. See attachements.
My next problem is the tach loss you can see on data logging. I will try to fix it by myself with the forum ...

Re: Shrinking Dwell

Hello,

I ended few days ago the megasquirtII conversion of a 84' 944na Porsche with the help of the information found in this excellent forum (thanks Jlturpin, M. Grippo, etc...).
A quick summary of my configuration: To re-use the 2 stock trigger sensors (130 tooth crank wheel without missing teeth ...
