hello all,
I have 27, 18, 9, 0 in my reference tooth table.
Can someone with the the idiots guide meaning to this info.
cheers

Due to the strange air in far off countries the table is traversed backward.
You have a V8 with a 36-1 trigger wheel which means 9 teeth between each cylinder, so the first trigger tooth is 0, then 9 (0+9), then 18 (9+9) then 27(18+9).
This is designed to allow irregular trigger teeth and odd-fire engines.
FWIW 36-1s for:
4 cylinder: 18 0 18 0 ...
6 cylinder: 24 12 0 24 12 0 ...
In fact it reeds backwards: 0-9-18-27. It is refference points on your trigger disc for engine events calculation. You have 36 or so called 36-1 trigger disc. and each event is separated by 90deg or exactly 9 teeth.
