EDIS 60-2 settings

Post by floppy »

If I use a 60-2 trigger wheel with an EDIS-8 on my 8 cylinder Cadillac 500 would I still use the 50 degree vr sensor/trigger wheel relationship and use the 15th tooth rather than the 5 teeth of the 36-1 set-up?

And which of the 2 missing teeth is the index?

From the Megamanual ;"EDIS-8: missing tooth is exactly five teeth (50°) ahead of the VR sensor"

And maybe the bigger question since I am not finding info relating the EDIS to a 60 tooth wheel, Does EDIS only work with a 36-1 wheel?

Thanks, Mark

floppy,

Yes, EDIS only works with a 36-1 wheel. The wheel is read by the module, not MegaSquirt, and appears as a regular distributor to the MegaSquirt controller (so no MegaSquirt settings will help with the 60-2).
