STATS:

running MT225 lastest release
MS1 v3 board -running MSnS-E rev 29q2 on a
straight (in line 6) cyl engine (old Triumph GT6 2 Liter engine)

36-1 crank trigger wheel firing triple wasted spark coils
external VB921's, mounted in the bottom of the coil pack
coil A feeds cyls 1 and 6 coil B feeds cyls 2 and 5 coil C feeds cyls 3 and 4

Initial missing tooth is 60° before trigger sensor

QUESTION(s):

docs examples list tirgger points at a/b/c = 35, 11, 23
Is this right? Or should I simply fire them at 11,23,35


Anyone havew a good example of what al lthe timing and dfwell settings should be?

Have you tried the trigger calculator spreadsheet I recently added to the wheel decoder page?

There's nothing wrong with the first trigger being 35, my 36-1 V8 runs like that.
