Links to FI info for dummies
Ok; I've been giving it quite some thought lately and I decided to start this thread so that I (and anyone who wishes to do so also :) ) can put some links to FI info for those who are like me "mechanically challenged".
My hope is: 1) to keep a thread here of some of the links I've got on my computer (just in case I happen to have a problem with it as it's been the case in the past :giggle:) 2) to try to provide some other members with useful links with regards to articles and FI info I've read on the web. Having said that; I'm going to start posting links: Engine Tuning Resources : Engine Tuning Videos/ Tips/ Basics/ Advice for Maximum Performance. This link gave me the chance to read some articles on "tuning" |

These are great for tuning out detonation. After a few adjustments, you can really hear the spark advance sweet spot.

Check out the links I put into my mega-sticky. The "stuff" section at the bottom might have a couple things you want to include. |
I think this thread should ban any articles from Import Tuner. Just saying...

If Import Tuner's info is crap, I'd have no problem with the mods deleting those posts. I must say; it's been pretty troublesome for me to get the concept of "ignition timing". That is still the case to this day. |
