Thanks Murray, that makes sense. I decided to hold of on controlling spark until I've got everything working just with fuel, then I'll move onto the spark!

In addition to my previous questions I'm looking at the fuel pump relay wiring again. Murray, is there a reason you said to have combi-relay 88b go to the opposite side of MS pin 37 on the relay (line in the picture I posted on thise thread) instead of just using the "always hot" 12v sourc...

Yesterday I was planning on plugging the MS in and seeing if the sensors were reading properly in Megatune. I decided to make sure the car started and idled OK before doing this as it had been sitting for a few days. And of course it wouldn't! After a couple hours of pulling out my hair and checking...

As for my MS files I have posted them on this site ,( although I can't find them at the moment)however you may be better off starting with Steve R's setup as he also has a 3.0L whereas mine is a 2.5L.If you want mine say so and I'll repost them. Question on Steve's files. When I try to load "D...

Thanks Murray, that makes sense :oops:. I'm in the process of fabricating my TPS bracket right now, almost done with it. Fingers crossed I'm hoping to plug the MS in this weekend and at least see if the sensors and TPS show as reading properly in MegaTune. Don't know if I'll get to the point of actu...

Murray, One more question about the fuel pump relay wiring...if you remember this is the pic I came referenced earlier in this thread: http://alfagtv6.com/phpBB3/download/file.php?id=4132 The question is about the connections to the new relay from 88d and 88b on the combi-relay. Did you leave the co...

Murray, In addition to my previous question...did you ever end up posting your MS files anywhere? I will need a set to start with! To recap, for my first attempt I'll have basically a stock 3.0, stock cams, injectors. Will keep the airbox on until I get it running. Volvo 850 TPS. Will only be contro...

Murray, Where did you add this resistor, on the hall sensor itself or somewhere in the wiring harness? I tried to take a look at the hall sensor on the dist of my spare engine but I wasn't able to get the "sector disk" (piece #6 in the pic) off. The service manual shows that you need to pr...

Thanks Murray. We you able to get the 18 gauge to fit into the holes on the back (of the connector in the picture in my previous post)? I guess I could just strip a real short bit of the wire and just lay it in the open cup part and solder it on, thoughts?

Thanks,
Kevin

No sketch :(. One other question while I'm at it. What gauge wire did you use for your pigtail between the DB37 and the LJet connector? I read in a couple places they suggested to use 14 gauge for the grounds but there is no way that is going to fit into the little holes in the DB37 connector cable ...

Couple more questions on the wiring: Kevin you should probably go with 50a.The ignition signal from the hall sender in the distributor is much "cleaner" and is easier to work with.You will have to make some small modifications to the car's wiring (pull-up resistor) when you install your MS...

Got hung up working on the Spider and getting the A/C fixed in the Verde (didn't want hot air blowing all the way to the convention and back!) but I'm itching to get on with the MS project. My next step is to build the wiring pigtail between the DB37 and the Bosch connector. Looking through the serv...

Murray, thanks for all the help. Time for me to read everything again and plan out in detail my next steps.
