MR MICHEAL SMITH. I wanted to let you know that I finally got the car fired up today . I have pics to show you what was done and will post my map for everyone to look at and give any suggestions . The car smoked real bad at 1st , but I believe this was from all the oil and tranny fluid that has been added for the past 18 months while this engine sat . The smoke cleared up after a bit . I did as directed with the wirring of the modified CAS , but even after this I could not get the LEDS on the wolf to light up . It seems even with a brand new red top Gel battery , that the car still was not spinning fast enough to start the car , so i jumped to batteries together . and still nothing . It would work when I spun the CAS by hand fast enough. I also spoke with Wayne speed and they sugested I add a MSD MAGNET SIGNAL STABILIZER and it started up the 1st try .I dont want to sound stupid , but is Wayne Speed "NYT " on this forum ???? If so THANKS to NYT also !!! I have no idea how the car ran last year with the way I had it wirred. Thanks again to everyone for putting up with my ignorance . Please pm me with any comments

The car is as follows

90 TI
550 cc on both rails - this will be changed in the next week or 2 - wanted to get it running 1st
Stock Turbo
All the emmissions stuff has been removed
Racing beat Exaust

Thats pretty much it , the car ran a 13 .4 sec last year with a broken diff mount , and stock tires

I'm not waynespeed. before you added the signal stabilizer did you make sure the voltage level for the cas was set to very low?

hmm, i think i might need one of these once it gets cold out

once the temp drops my car doesnt turn over fast enough to get a rpm signal

can you post how you have it wired?

yes i did ,This was the only thing I could think of to help out , but it was no help . Once I got the car to fire and run , it will start with the one battery .

Congrats on getting your car running Va .. it's always satisfying when things finally all come together works.. I'm curious as to your wiring of the stabalizer as well.. I've got an MSD 8509 which I belive is the same thing.. I was going to use it on my wolf ver3 but never got around to it..
I actually just finished with my own wolf ver4 install. it took me all of 3 hours to install and get the car fired up and running ... Mind you, I cheated and just plugged the unit into my version 3 harness .. What a world of diffrence having 16 load bands makes when compared to the old 8... I've just finished my first street tuning run.. 18psi on pump gas and the car stayed together ...

Just a tip for some of you that are having a few signal issues .. I've run across a handful CAS's which reluctor magnets have been coated over time with dirt and other foreign materials.. this of course will lead to weak signals .. It may not be a bad idea to remove your reluctors, take a bit of fine sandpaper and just give the magnet a little bit of a clean .. it does wonders for the signal..

anyhow, congrats again..

Great Stuff Va .... My guess is that the pickup has lost a few turns. I have seen this before. How much for the stabliser???
Cheers

P.S> I am glad to help anyone get there car started.... another bug squashed

Wolf wirring MSD unit
12 V Red
Ground _ Earth Black
brown / white Yellow This is the old input signal
brown/ white Purple This is the new input signal
Shield Green

Hope this helps , but thanks again for all who helped.

BTW did anyone look at the map I posted ??? Did it look OK ?????

Va,

Just to clarify the wireing in my mind, I drew up a very poor picture..



Does that look correct to you? The green wire to shield is the one that i'm not too sure about.. as well, are the yellow and the purple wires in the right place or should they be reversed?

I appreciate any clarification you can offer..

Many thanks,
Chris
