The MegaSquirt Project has experienced explosive growth other the years, with hundreds of new MS installations occurring every week - a phenomenal success! MegaSquirt has been successfully used in all aspects of Internal Combustion engine applications including R&D, Industry, Race, and Research. The MS project has transformed itself from a simple R&D project into a full-featured mature engine control system. To reflect this the support structure has also changed to meet the needs of MegaSquirt Users.
Moving forward, the R&D forums for MegaSquirt project are in a read-only mode - no new forum posts are accepted.
However the forums will remain available for view, they still contain a wealth of information on how MegaSquirt works, how it is installed and used. Feel free to search the forums for information, facts, and overview.While the R&D forum traffic has slowed in recent years, this is not at all a reflection of Megasquirt users, which continue to grow year after year. What has changed is that the method of MegaSquirt support today has rapidly moved to Facebook, this is where the vast majority of interaction is happening now. For those not on Facebook the msextra forums is another place for product support. Finally, for product selection assistance, all of the MegaSquirt vendors are there to help you select a system, along with all of the required pieces to make it complete.
Forum for discussing how to install MicroSquirt(TM), choose and troubleshoot sensors, wiring, and communications for MicroSquirt (TM) and MicroSquirt Module(TM).

hi i am working on converting my 86 xr600 to microsquirt. i have the msextra code loaded to the controller. working on configing the crank wheel settings. i have a 24-1 tooth wheel. the tooth #1 before tdc setting has me wondering. is that the skip tooth count? i plan on having the missing tooth 6 tooth (90 deg) before tdc.
i also aquired thease 2 map sensors. i have tried googling them but no info as of yet. both came from gm, the big one from a mid 90's s10 and the small one form a early 2k car. id like to use the small one for space savings as i dont have a loot of free room on my dirt bike. is there ay way of determining the settings to use for it? thanks for the help
Looks like your standard M-N wheel there; that should be no problem.
For the MAP sensor, apply power and ground to it, and see what voltage it puts out. If it's from a naturally aspirated car, it's very likely to be a 1 bar.
thank you for the reply. ill try that inputs on the sensors this weekend. how can i check to see if the sensors are reading correctly?
i know the wheel is a standard m-n conf. after email with you guys suggest that i want the missing tooth 90 deg before tdc (which equates to 6 teeth).
the question is where and what info do i put into the software to tell the CPU where its at in the stroke. im guessing it has something to do with the box i have highlighted
is the data supposed to be tooth, degress, positive or negitive?
OK thanks. So the tooth wheel isn't attached to the splined part yet, its a slip for till I get to installing on the bike then I will weld it in place.
So I have to know. Dose it measure from were the missing tooth is or start at the first tooth after the gap?
