July 4, 200818 yr comment_258377 a mate and i just put in a elec 4k dizzy in his ke70, as far as i know we installed it right and seems to run ok but it pings its but off! even when i adjust the timing as far as i can both ways (the slot in the dizzy limits how far i can rotate it) it still does it, and when we do get it to almost stop pinging its slugish as all hell!! whats going on???

July 5, 200818 yr comment_258459 seems to run ok but it pings its but off! Thats an oxymoron! Anyway, you might have got your dizzy in 180 degrees out of whack which would cause all sorts of issues. Report
July 5, 200818 yr comment_258481 what he said, take it out n put it back in the other way round ;) Report
July 5, 200818 yr comment_258489 you could also have it a few teeth out.. you really need a timing light to dude. Report
July 5, 200818 yr comment_258606 No teeth on a K series dizzy, its got a tongue and groove drive. Only 2 ways it'll go in. Report
July 5, 200818 yr comment_258611 No teeth on a K series dizzy, its got a tongue and groove drive. Only 2 ways it'll go in. Ummm what, No it don't and you can put a screwdriver into the oil pump and turn it to suit the dizzy. Report

July 6, 200818 yr comment_258741 it may actually be sparking properly and burning the fuel, are you sure it didnt ping before? my 4k would ping with standard timing on regular. Report
July 6, 200818 yr comment_258742 Use a timimg light and try running it on premium unleaded that will stop the pinging aswell Report
July 7, 200818 yr comment_258879 Ummm what, No it don't and you can put a screwdriver into the oil pump and turn it to suit the dizzy. yeh no shit, brain fade, thats the oil pump drive. :D 12 hour days. Wrong tooth on the dizzy. Last dizzy brainfade I had, I plugged all the leads on my 911 in reverse order (these german engineers are so good, they don't bother labelling the dizzy caps) so instead of firing 123456 I had 165432 and the thing ran but wouldnt rev..... pretty funny.

July 7, 200818 yr Author comment_258884 its working ok now, it wasnt 180 deg out just a tooth out (which i thought couldn't happen) thanks :D Report
