mycars12 Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 I have recently been fitting a standalone and on tunerstudio under the logging it shows alot of cam signal noise but the crank signal is fine. Is there a way to remedy this noise without having to shave down any teeth? Ep82 4efte using 24+1 oem distributor. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobSR Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 Replace the wiring and use shielded cable Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mycars12 Posted May 5, 2020 Author Share Posted May 5, 2020 Replace the wring from the distributor? I was making a jumper harness to run from the oem harness to the microsquirt. Replacing the wires would sort of defeat the purpose of the jumper harness. Would the only other way be to convert it to a 12-1 by grinding teeth off? If I'm not mistaken the factory harness already has it shielded? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Will shave 2 teeth off the distributor and see if that remedies my problem. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I had to shave 2 teeth , remove cam signal and a shielded cable ok now this even with COP Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mycars12 Posted June 17, 2020 Author Share Posted June 17, 2020 With the tunerstudio filters applied my car is running fine now on the microsquirt ecu. No errors for now. Just used to stock distributor wires from the harness. The filter was enough to reduce the signal noise and not cause any misfires at all. Issue is fixed Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mycars12 Posted June 18, 2020 Author Share Posted June 18, 2020 It was misfiring and having sync loss at lower rpms below 750. Then it would randomly misfire at around 950(idle). It was fine above that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mycars12 Posted June 20, 2020 Author Share Posted June 20, 2020 (edited) lol it was not that bad. It would just cut out and the rpms would go down. Wasnt that bad of a misfire. Granted I am using the dizzy to get the cam and crank signal. Did you check your first tooth and verify that you locked the timing to 10 degrees and checked it with a timing light?

JxckGlanza Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 What do you mean checked your first tooth mate? Stuggling to work out what it is atm. thought it might be map? It’s not loosing sync. I am also using the Dizzy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mycars12 Posted June 24, 2020 Author Share Posted June 24, 2020 Was trying to give you my whatsapp so i could help you out. Might have to modify the map a bit. The hardest part is usually getting the base timing right then the proper settings and firing order. Check that your timing is spot on at 10 degrees according to what its showing in the system. After that check your firing order to see what it is. Most are 1342. Also they had a notorious problem of not listing the displacement properly under their maps 4efte is 1331cc and 5e should be 1497cc Also try and check the tooth logger to see if you are getting any noise or any errors. Since you are cop you will be using batch fire instead of seq I believe. Any specific questions you have about your setup? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
