nissan timing? help ?

Post by Jhayes »

hello,
i have a 90 nissan maxima

with an 87 300zx engine in it. its turbo'd and i have the megasquirt hooked up.
i dont know how to set the timing because i have a distributor, and i dont know what to put in for the timing code, and the fixed degree. i tried a bunch of random numbers and nothing is making it run, it just sits there cranking and cranking till i kill the battery, and i've gone through one already.

so does anyone know what to put in for the timing codes?

and how do i set up my fuel. i have 6 injectors on a v6 and it wont let me chose the injectors to squirt twice a cycle because its saying that my cubic lvl is to low? or somethiing like that. any help would be great :) thanks

try a trigger angle of 68 degrees. I'm still not convinced that's exactly right yet, but it should at least run at that angle.
