Glad you got it going. Don't worry, you're not the first to put those LED's in backwards. I thought I did it right the first time and I fucked it up. Just help others when you can. That's all I want.

build looks good besides the backwards LEDs, was that the issue? It should still work either way.

Well, it fired up really rough last night after changing the LCDs. I only got to run it for about 4 seconds before I had to give up on it. My goal for today was to dial in the timing as I assumed that was the reason it was running rough, but I am actually only running on cylinders 2 and 3 - or in other words, only 1 coil is firing.

When I power the MS on, the LED closest to the DB9 stays on persistent until I crank, then the two outer lights will light up. Any thoughts where to begin looking for the 1/4 cylinder coil problem?

I have no idea if it will help or not, but I'm going to attach a log I did just in case.
