K, this is what I got.

MSII V3 board, 2.34s19

Single cylinder, four stroke

Using VR - Tachsel input

Same result with hall input

With Autometer magneto signal converter, I get RPM 4 times of actual RPM. The Autometer converter connects to the coil, NOT the magneto. (which would make sense b/c then you would have a hit every cycle) but, i can't figure out why it is 4 times higher, triggering off the coil?
