    Before we got rid of the electronics completely on the 93 we wanted to try one more thing in hopes of fooling the timing and i think us 2 hillbillies beat the computer. Took the EDC Gov housing off and pulled the "tone ring" i guess you call it. What picks up the timing off the timing event marker.

    Got the puller and removed the wheel. Marked the timing marks carefully. Maybe moved the wheel 1/16 of an inch hoping to bring the static up to 15ish and under full load 23-24.

    Just fired her up and the light/no load stutter went away and no check engine light either (we were afraid it would throw a code and derate)

    Fingers crossed will see....

    Need a diff style compressor to fit the mech pump. Or mount it up front more like the mechanical came from the factory. And new fuel lines at 175 a pop. Needs a comp soon so we're going that route

    I was wondering the same thing? Don’t think I’ve ever seen a coil secured like that before? I guess is almost meets the criteria? I think it’s only missing something over the top of each coil. Kinda looks like the coil racks are outside the coil too?

    Not how I would do it though. But I guess I do some stuff other people wouldn’t do either?

    Coil racks to far apart, looks like square cut dunage, chains crossing eachother, straps touching eachother. And not sure if coils are touching floor. Looks like they are. Those are not very secure.
