Crank sensor and Reluctor positioning

<< < (2/2)

Sprocket:
I thought you needed either one missing tooth or more than two, so that with the software, the ECU knows where TDC on #1 cylinder is for DIS to work

Missing teeth at 180 degrees apart, the ECU cannot decide which coil to fire for the right cylinder without some sort of other cam position. This is something at this time i cannot do. Using the MPi block would allow this as it has one already, Camshafts are limited to mild profiles though

Anatomy of the Rover Mini SPi (MPi very similar) crank shaft position sensor





Sensor is mounted in the Flywheel housing just below the starter motor as indicated, you can just see the hole and its fixings


Crank sensor looks like this


Very neat package TBH :-\

I was talking about with the 36-1 trigger wheel.  You can stick with the stock trigger location.
