93' Miata stolen and flipped build thread
#2408
OK replace the COP on #4 with a spare I had and then started up the engine. I then unplugged the wire to #4 and the engine stumbled and then became smooth after reconnecting it. So I'm guessing that issue is fixed.
Now I'm trying to figure out why I have no timing advance. it will go from 0 to -1.4. It did give me crazy advance at start up to the tun of 24+ but then went to 0 and didn't deviate from that.
Also the AFR in TS and the gauge were matching for the first 30 seconds and then the tunerstudio AFR didn't move from 13.30, while the AEM gauge danced between 13-15(which I hope is a good sign it isn't running lean).
Do I need to go buy a timing light and figure this out properly on the timing issue?

Yes, basically. There's a writeup on it actually. Even on m.net garage section there's a how to on doing this, the only difference with ms is instead of "locking" the ecu into 10* with jumpers, you simply go into TS and timing settings and switch the drop down from "use map" to "fixed timing".
Then you check with timing light and depending on how much its out you adjust either by rotating the cas, or changing the "offset" in ms until 10* = 10*
