I am reluctant to remove the intake manifold to check the injector connection, but I feel like its inevitable.

Which cylinders are wet? Is it wired for sequential fuel?

Red line in composite log is lost sync events. So you get a couple while its grabbing sync. And then it stops because it syncs.

No sequencial. I was trying to avoid ******* with too many things until it actually ran.
After more testing, here is what I have found.


Cyl.1- no spark- wet
Cyl. 2 weak spark-dry, brown
Cyl.3 lighting type spark- brown
Cyl.4 no spark, wet.

I don't understand. Is this good, bad or normal?

Interesting. 1 and 4 are the same trigger from the ECU. 2 and 3 are different. Are you using output test mode to test the coils?

Nope. I could figure out how to make it test. I set it up like it says, but the start test button never becomes available. Just grey. Don't even really understand what should happen. Directions a vague at best. Do I crank it, do I sit there and wait for a test to start?
Instead I just removed all of the plugs, grounded them and cranked.
Anything from efi analytics seems to just have microspheres of information. I emailed them about directions on how to use the mega log viewer, and they said that they never wrote any. Well that's nice.

Just wanted to throw out there, that if anyone is interested in my coil mount, I can provide a dxf file. It only cost me 40 bucks to have it cut.

Update..
Testing the coil trigger wires.
With the ignition on-
Brown =240 Mv.- this is the circuit that actually fires a coil
BROWN/YELLOW= 8 Mv.- this circuit will not fire a coil.

Ignition off=
NeAR zero for both.

What the **** does this mean?

Well, it starts bit it doesn't run well at all. I don't know what to do, and am at the end of my rope. My wide band that worked fine six months ago, no longer reads correct. Calibration does nothing. I didnt change anything aboit it. There are so many new features on ms3 that I just don't know how to set up or use. I thought all of my ms2 knowledge would transfer over, but it just doesn't.

I am now going to literally start all over. New project, new map, and start from step #1 in the ms3 guide.

Yeah, I tried this. My "start" button is non existing. It's there, but greed out. FOR EV VER. FOR EV VER. No combination of actions make it accessible.
