Unhappy Haltech Platinum Pro 1000 starting issue

Hi guys,

Have some issues with starting the car. When I first start it, it seems to start on one rotor, then when you rev it it pops and bangs quite loud. As the car warms up both rotors start again and the car is fine (nothing is wrong with the engine). The car boosts fine etc, no smoke.

I have the following settings and want to know if they are correct:

Trigger Edge - Rising or falling (Currently have rising but think it should be falling?)

Tooth Offset - Should this be 11?

Trigger angle - I currently have 60, I think this is right?

Thanks guys, can really use your input and appreciate your help!

I hate to bring up the basics (also the undesireable). A compression test as well as to test your primaries (and secondaries even) for leaks while the car isnt running. Does your issue happen everytime you start it or just when cold? You say no smoke. Is that during startup as well?

Hi,

The engines compression is great . No leaky injectors either.

The issue is purely with cold start. When the car is warm it starts up fine, instantly on both rotors.

There is some setting in the cold start in the haltech that I am missing or done wrong, hence why I put up the information on settings above with questions.

Trigger edge is falling. Tooth offset and trigger angle are inter-related, engine dependent, and terribly important to get right. There is not one right setting for all engines. The information you need is already on the forum.
