mikesail Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Hi y'all. As I do not possess a shop manual, can someone please describe how the engine timing relationship to the ECU is set. Where is the pickup located? Also need to know if there is only one timing source for the ECU only, or does the ignition have a seperate input as well. Also would like to know what is the proper procedure for setting the engine timing on a FI Bird, assuming that it is adjustable. My suspicion is that the poor mileage I get, (about 31 regardless of how I ride), is due to a substantial retarding of the ignition. I believe this for a couple of reasons. One is that the bike runs rather hot, and the second is that it has never shown the slightest hint of detonation even with the cheapest gas on a very hot day. Finally it is suprising that the mileage is always the same whether I am on the freeway or riding in the hills. I welcome any other comments that are relevent. Thanks, Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
