Re: ECU and Engine Miss Diagnosis

[Donald Gallimore <dongallimore@xxxxxxx>]

The coil is a new Blaster II coil and the wires are new 7.5 or 8 mm Taylor 
wires.  Both were installed in late August and have only been through two races.

I will check the reluctor to pick up gap.  I do use the brass feeler guages.  Is 
it supposed to be set at 6, 7 or 8 thousand? Or does it really matter that much?

As usual, thanks for the responses and any further responses I get.
