distributor advance curves

Post by PTrek »

Can anyone point me in the direction of a suitable bolt on sensor to get TDC position into the scope from a pre injection era vehicle so that I can check distributor advance curves? Incidently, is there any charting support for this measurement ie graph of degrees advance versus rpm?
Thanks

Hi
Sorry for the late reply to your post.
A breakers yard would be a good place to start for a sensor and flywheel. Is there a later fuel injected model that you could retro fit these parts ?
For the purposes of tuning this would seem a radical move. Is a strobe and accurate degree reference template around the flywheel pulley not sufficiently accurate ?

We do not at present support any ignition advance /rpm measurements but this is an area we would like to develop in the future.
Regards,
David
