Still having issues tuning my setup....
Think I have wide open figured out, fuel wise. Afr seams to settle out anywhere from 13-13.5 depending on gear and time. Usually richer in 1 and leaner in 3/4. Still have a pinging condition but runs great. Also belive I have a low speed cruise problem as my afr can jump from 11 to 14.
Wide open is good but I haven't really layed into it due to said pinging problem.
This is directed towards bill(wsa111), but all are welcome. How does one adjust the total timing on a ds2 distributor? I know total is a combination of initial, vacuum, and mechanical. I know how to measure all three and have the specs provided by wsa111. Base at 18-20 with 18 additional. I feel like I need to limit total,(tempted to drive with vacuum advance disco and see what it does). I'm running around 14 base at the moment trying to keep it some what drive able, but it did seem to like more base.
This will kind of be a temporary setup as I'm hoping to swap to efi and electronic ignition this winter (see my post in efi section for more) but if I can get this working correctly I'll postpone a little. Efi is out of desperation to make this thing work right.
