huxley309 0 Posted April 8, 2006 (edited) Anyone have the firing pattern for a 106 or similar coilpack as im about fire up the mi cheers Edit:It's a wasted spark system Edited April 8, 2006 by huxley309 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
huxley309 0 Posted April 8, 2006 is that starting from the left closest to the connector? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
petert 607 Posted April 8, 2006 That's just what order the cylinders have to fire. It really doesn't matter how you hook up the coils as long as they fire in the right order. For wasted spark, 1 and 4 fire together and 2 and 3 fire together. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
huxley309 0 Posted April 8, 2006 (edited) Cheers for the help pete the firing pattern was 1,2 3,4 She sounded like a bag of nails heh mate reckons the bodies either need balancing or arent getting enough fuel Edited April 8, 2006 by huxley309 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rich_w 0 Posted April 8, 2006 Huxley what do you mean by the firing pattern is 1,2 3,4 ? That doesn't sound right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
huxley309 0 Posted April 8, 2006 (edited) 1&2 on the left 3&4 on the right with the connection facing towards you She is firing correctly but runs rough because it was mapped for a std mi whereas this one is a totally different animal I wont fire her up again until a mate shows up to map her anyway Using the 1,3,4,2 pattern she didn't want to know and even backfired but with this one she fires up fine everytime Edited April 8, 2006 by huxley309 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
petert 607 Posted April 8, 2006 Good to hear you got it started. If it is a true wasted spark spark system, with two double ended coils, you only have a 50% chance of hooking it up wrong. Cyls. 1 and 3 have to fire together and 4 and 2 have to fire together, so that the engine fires in its correct 1342 firing order. I assume you have two ignition outputs from the ECU/ignition module(s)? It must be one way, or the other. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
huxley309 0 Posted April 9, 2006 (edited) Yeah i do have 2 outputs from the dta even i expected 1,3,4,2 as i know this is an mi firing pattern but yet 1,2 3,4 works fine just chugs like mad to begin with then as the revs puck up she starts to smooth out mind there is a wild catcam in there 283/279 Anyway i phoned a mate who knows the mapper and he suggested the other pattern, i know with a wasted spark theres little chance of getting it wrong but i wanted to make sure it was right anyway First impressions hmm she's gonna be quick Edited April 9, 2006 by huxley309 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
