How does this idle log look? As far as timing? (Don't mind my non-cycling o2v I dont know what's up with that i've come to a dead end with that besides it being the ECU)

Anyone know what base idle timing should look like?

This is a 6 bolt in a 2gb by the way and I don't have the ground/timing plug to set base timing like 95s

Bringing this back! LOL

So i've been hearing the only ways to ground timing to set base timing on a 2gB are with dsmlink or the mitsubishi scan tool.

But I also heard today that you can ground 2 pins in the ecu of a 2gB to ground timing? Does anyone know about this? Someone with a 2gB with a 6 bolt must have had this problem :coy:

Any info is greatly apretiated.

Thanks

I actually just found that and it seems like a very logical way of doing it.

BUT while I was cranking and watching with the timing light on cyl1's wire the little white timing notch was not on the same spot every time. It would jump between the 5ish mark back and forth to about the 15ish mark past the 10btdc mark every other fire.

Any ideas why this is? While cranking is it supposed to be on the same spot every fire?

And can I use my logger to see the timing on that, to get it to 5*btdc?

thanks alot
