Coil Pack options for single fire point
Can it ?
How does the Level 8 run coil packs ?
Well, speaking with karl he said the SECS one runs wasted spark, so fires on 2 banks rather than single point.
I don't fancy that after what happened to the dolly LOL....

i'm not talking about the SECS one, i'm talking about a much more sophisticated solution that doesn't require a separate driver board
i think wasted spark is ok under most circumstances if not running ALS or NOS, but individual coils on each cylinder is obviously more advanced and will give a longer spark plug life as well as eliminating any HT leads if you use the direct coil on plug type.

Guess you will have to buy aftermarket management such as Autronic then, unless anyone else has any ideas? My minds a a blank at the moment...

sorry to misinform you steve. i knew that it had been done with coil on plugs, but didn't know that it was still running as a wasted spark configuration
stick with it, and i'm sure it will be done how you want it soon

i have one of the first batch of your wasted spark s.e.c.s. board that are prone to high rpm misfires, are they upgradeable to be like revision 2 with the claimed longer dwell at high rpm?
cheers

The only people who have had any missfire issues still not resolved by myself are both in excess of 600BHP. I didnt see that as too poor on a Ford Zetec coil. They have also both been offered an upgrade to the latest revision FOC.
I wouldnt worry too much about teh gas, the chance's of it igniting are similar to those of you getting run over on your way to buy more gas. I have LOTS of cars running WS with gas.
