Yesterday when I was taking pictures for my Clutch-Line install thread, I disconnected the vaccum line to the MS which was in the way. When I started the car this morning... it ran like ****. It was super rich as it was in the 1500rpm/~0 cel on startup. I was running 10ms on pulse length and it was spitting gas out the tailpipe. I couldnt' figure it out right away so I drove the truck.

I get home this evening and discover the disconnected line pretty quick... and since it's warm now, I start messing with my idle. First is to double check timing... HOLY ****, HOW DO I CHECK THE TIMING WITH NO SPARK PLUG WIRE?!?!? As it turns out, just putting the inductive pickup on the COP harness worked like a charm. So, I learned something new. My timing was perfect and I messed with some warmup values and some idle timing. It idles a little better now. That's all.

If you do have issues, like at the dyno, stick a plug wire in the end of the cop and use it as an extension cable for the coil. The inductor can go around the plug wire.

timing light wouldnt work with my cops, so i threw my stock coil pack on it, since it was sitting there. otherwise, use #4 wire and pull #1 out.

fwiw, inductive pickup works on dyno.
