Crank Wheel Slipping
Posted: Mon Jul 11, 2011 2:54 am
I have an EEC-IV EFI 434 cubic inch Ford motor with an EDIS-8 setup. I use a 36-1 Crank Wheel and a VR sensor. I set it up to 10 degrees advanced and it runs great. However sometimes when I run the motor hard, the Crank Wheel will slip. Then the timing will be too far advanced. I had to be towed home twice because the ignition timing jumped.
The Crank Wheel is sandwiched between the Crank Danper and the Crank Pulley. There is some clearance built-in that allows me to adjust the Crank Wheel to set the timing. The VR sensor is fixed in place. I lock the Crank Wheel with two set screws through the Carnk Pulley, but it still slips under hard acceleration.
How is the Crank Wheel normally secured into place?
