Yeah my tach signal was also starting to get really giddy, jumping around at startup and whenever I changed dwell settings(same one that came with my clip as well). Like it needed to readjust but couldn't and went all crazy. Yeah I saw that Aaron had them, I think I'll put in my order today...

Well I believe I narrowed everything down to the problem today being the ignitor:sarcasm:. It was probably the majority of the problem combined with all the other little problems with the ignition system, not directly showing it to be the igniter:nono:. I got all my brand new coils in and brand...

I hear ya, that's exactly how I look at everything too. I've been assuming they may not clear my problem and thinking ahead to be prepared for what could be next, I've learned over the years not to be over optimistic when it comes to cars:nono:, it can easily be a hit or miss sometimes even if...

Thanks guys for all the responses. I have been waiting for the rest of the coils this week so I have just been painting parts. Once I get the coils in though I'm going to throw her back on the dyno and pull a lot of timing from my map. I have a headset to detect knock, I have also been pulling...

For those of you saying Iridiums didn't cut it what are you running how did you get the breaking up to stop? That's what I'm looking for I hate shotgunning parts and as of now it doesn't like these copper plugs at all anything over .016 it hates. Maybe it's due to my coils we will find out, but...

Great man thanks for all the insight. I'm worried the coils won't completely eliminate the problem either but with the plugs you are running that I am running currently I cannot get a gap higher than .016 which isn't right I should be able to have a mid .020 gap:nono:. I just went and picked up...

Yeah all spark plugs technically are its just what it likes, and my 1J isn't liking the coppers at all. I'm about to go run and get some IX, I didn'y have the part number but now I do:icon_bigg.

Yeah it began to run a lot better once I changed the dwell to 2.125ms that's where I have had it for a couple weeks now. I didn't know the plugs I was running were copper I was told they were a platinum plug, what's the part number for the NGK iridium and platinum? As for a CDI ignition...

Unfortunately not, everyone around here has a 7m. My coils though have about 70k on them compared to your 35k. The way it drives during cruise compared to under high load is significantly different it feels very good during cruise but once under load it just misses like crazy. i wish I had...

I'm thinking coils, it's fine WOT climbing boost up to 4.5k then in the graph begins to break up all the way to 7.5k. Here is the graph, pull is in 3rd from 2k rpm. One was done at 8* static timing the other at 10*(named accordingly) no one had a timing light that seemed to give a good reading...

Well the epoxy and heat shrink didn't help, I have a dyno sheet from the pulls and it's definitely looking like coils:nono:. I'll upload them later and if anyone could take a look at them to help confirm that'd be great.

Yeah it's true it's most likely the issue I believe the tune is almost spot on, I just got done pulling the other 5 coils that aren't new. I shrink wrapped all the stems and epoxied the case's where there were cracks that I didn't see before and about to see how that does, may just help a little...

I believe I found the dwell sweet spot at 2.25ms and a decent igntion MAP that it should run well on, I can get a dyno sheet today, do you just need the power and torque curves or would you like A/F as well? It was almost 10psi and up I would break up and that was from stock gap all the way...

Where are you backing away timing, are talking mechanical, electronically or in the MAP?

I've decided to re-check my timing marks today because something just isn't adding up, it was so long ago it feels like since doing it I feel like it should be double checked. MAPs are all good components are all good, just something with the timing and ignition isn't completing the equation...

At 0psi I'm at 41.80 degrees at 4k rpm, check out the MAP I uploaded on here. It's about 10 degrees more than ive seen on any other MAP, I think i'll try and pull back some timing and change my dwell and see what I get.

After looking at mine the timing is pretty advanced throughout the whole MAP, but that was how it ran best when the dwell was at .8125ms. Would retarding the timing and raising the dwell to 3.5ms change how things are running?

Here's is the MAP that is currently running in my car, change it to .em4 to view it. If anyone could upload theres as well with a similar setup that'd be great so I could look at compare things as well!

Cool man I should have it uploaded here in about 40 minutes if you'll still be on, how do you upload them onto a post?

Well it helped in terms of free rev and accel but at .8125ms of dwell. Once I got it all in I went to my dwell settings and changed it to 3.5ms and the tach signal instantly went crazy on me and the engine duplicated it at idle, rev and cruise:aigo:. I cannot get anything decent unless I run...
