Trigger settings Honda D16 Engine with ITB's and stock Dizzy (Emu Classic) - Base map?

EMU BLACK / CLASSIC
1

Hello,

I am having problems with the ignition settings on my Ecumaster Classic and Honda D16 engine. I am using a standard ignition distributor and a standard coil ( in the distributor).

I am using 2 VR sensors, one with 24 teeth and the other with 1 tooth.
The first one is connected to Trigger 1 and the second one to Cam 1. The grounding is on both of them to sensor ground.

I have set the ignition to 0 degrees and checked with a strobe. I can’t get the ignition to 0 degrees even though I tried changing the parameters on the Primary Trigger.

I removed the spark plugs so the engine crank faster and the strobe light would see better

Whenn the 2 Vr (1 tooth) is on the sensor thene the reluctor ring is on the 4 cylinder. If I understand correctly the ring has to rotate another 180 degrees (main shaft 360 degrees) to get to 1 cilinder, thats why i chose 13 tooth as first trigger.

The engine wants to start but backfiring on intake.

I have spoken to my tuner about this problem and he says to put a 60-2 toothet pulley and a new sensor directly on the main shaft.

This is my last option as I am cramped with space in the engine compartment.

So mi question is do anybody have a base map for this Engine or point me in the right direction?

Sorry for my bad English.

Thanks for the help Sherlockwrmz but I didn’t have the will to bother with the original sensor anymore. I probably made a mistake somewhere in the setup with the original sensor, so I assembled a 60-2 Trigger Wheel and VR sensor from a 1.9 TDI PD engine. I still use the original dizzy and the original ignition coil.

I installed the Trigger Whell as per the instructions from Ecumaster. That is to say 9 teeth Trigger Tooth and 60° Trigger Angle.

I checked the setting with a stroboscope and everything works fine.

The engine now starts. Now we need to synchronise the ITBs and sort out a few little things and the car can go to the tuner.

Thx again for your help.
