Just read the "air cooled" part, what did you do for an engine temp sensor, point me at previous answer if I missed it :-) Good question, it doesn't have one yet :/, I suppose that is next on the list also. Was planning to drill into the cylnder head somewhere, not sure where yet. I'm gue...

Thank you Fred, for the neat program. Mad props to Fred, Andy, Michael, and everyone else who contributed. I really had a smile on my face as I mowed the lawn today--got some strange looks--especially from my brother in law when I tried to explain the wires dangling from the engine. Regarding the of...

thanks Fred, the mighty hotel can hang with RS4s or do you have your truck running? BTW the MOAR was making wierd sounds. I had the wrong perception of what wasted spark would look like on a 2 cylinder. I also had the decoder offset backwards--I found in an older post that it is 360-whatIthought. He...

Got the engine running now on the second jaguar--since I screwed up the first one. Same problem though of only firing on one cylinder. Could be something fundamentally wrong with my fixed config does this look right? anglesOfTDC: {ANGLE(0), ANGLE(270)}, // v-twin 90 degree outputEventPinNumbers: {0}...

Was able to do internal wiring tonight:

Thanks Fred, The V angle for the engine is 90d, does anyone's engine experience tell them what the TDC angle should be? In other news. I worked some more on the proper enclosure. Made an end plate and notched the case to accept the TE connector that Andy spec'd out in his BOM. I'm too lazy to make a...

Sorry for the delayed response. I'm still not sure if it is odd-fire. Documentation is thin to say the least on these mower engines-the service manual I have isn't even consistant with which cylinder is #1. The 2 pistons share a crank throw, but from what I can tell the 2nd cylinder fires ~240 degre...

1. I was wondering the same thing. 2.Is it #32 or something then? 3.I'm on it!--just purchased an inductive timing lamp.

Does it count if I am running ignition only and only 1 cylinder is firing?
