Adjust Ignition Timing

How can i set up the correct ignition timing?

Where i can find that function? I used a ignition light to read timing and there is a missmatch of around 10 degree (2JZ GTE VVTI)

This engine got no mechanical option to adjust timing like the CA18det - i think i have to do this in emu software.

thanks

Yeah i did,

i changed the "first trigger tooth" value because this should be responsible for the first ignition but - no results

seems like this is wrong - should i work with the trigger angle ?

Yes change the trigger angle till it matches.

Send me your map so i can take a look at it. Or post all of your ignition settings.

Also, make sure you have the right polarity on your crank/cam sensors.

I did it now with

Ignition - Ignition event trims

First cylinder needed 8.5 degree to match with the timing light, i applied the 8.5 degrees now to all 6 cyl - should work right ?

it will work, this way, but it is a workaround. Two options are responsible for correct timing adjustments.

Trigger tooth, which is a "coarse" trigger adjustment
Trigger Angle, which is a fine trigger adjustment

8 degrees misalignment can be set in trigger angle, to match perfectly.
