Adjusting timing

[Chatmanboy]

What happen when you have to much timing how does the car run?

Either lean or rich, I would lean... Towards it running lean.

ARe you playing around with your MAF translator settings or through the chip via scanmaster?

have my alky kit running now and they say it likes more timing and i turned it up... but now when i push on the gas i hear a lil ticking sound... wondering if it was because i had to much timing

 

[RegalT-type85]

Dont know about alky sorry. Did you get a chip with ALKY settings built in? I know it can adjust but if you put it into the spec sheet for Eric, is what i'am asking.

put the timing back where it was before you hurt the motor. tune your car with a scan tool. turn up the boost before playing with timing

i do have a scanmaster and i turned the boost up after i put the alky kit on. and i turned the timing up with the scanmaster but i just noticed that the turn on light is not blinking for the alky kit so i do think its pumping because im getting to much knock...

 

[Boost231]

well call razor asap and get the alky kit trouble shooted

Does the car stumble at idle when the test button is pushed? Yes-check vacuum lines from MAP sensor. No-Call Julio. Brad

Yes it does stumble it doesnt suppose to? But the problem i am talking about is when i reach 5 psi of boost the turn-on does not illuminate nor does it seem like its pumping the alky because im getting way to much knock... I talk to Julio and he said to check the volts on the map i did and it read 1.57v on both ends... My ? is does it suppose to drop down or go up in volts when the car is started because it goes down to 1.16 at idle didnt check if it goes up when i give gas...

I had the same problem with Akly on test and none on boost. No green light. The powerlogger run showed no boost above zero when in fact there was. I chased the problem down to a broken vacuum 90 connector on the MAP sensor. Repaired the vacuum leak on the MAP line which enables the Razor kit turn on and all is good. If this is not your problem then you have either a bad MAP sensor or bad Razor kit electrical install. Give Julio a call. Brad

Fixed the problem... the lil black box that goes to the solenoid the screw on that was touching my copper wire to my gauges and i guess messing the electrical part of the system up...

 

[Chatmanboy]

Never did get a response about the timing but the alky is fine now... but now im getting a lil ticking sound when i push on the gas can this be from the timing?
