Will do, there was a post on the old forum that covered this, unfortunately there was never a concrete answer I am afraid. So, I will check what you suggested, and in addition if that does not solve the problem, I will pull one of the heads and measure the liner and do some math.

I have this bad boy sitting in my garage, I was told the mileage is lower than 40.000, I inspected the oil sump and removed valve covers, it is absolutely like brand new, does not even have a sludge deposit in it. Anyways, I thought it was a 2.5, but this does not confirm my thoughts, is it a 3.0?? ...

Brooks and Xrad, the latest suggestion may not be too far fetched, I have a slightly separate notion. The other day I got everything to work except for the car starting, I adjusted (raised) the optical pickup to further clear the disk. I am getting the red light every time the trigger sees through t...

Ok, I will try that, also I was thinking that I could run a positive wire straight from the ignition box and simply ground the unit. Then perhaps let all of the green and (white+yellow) connect in the same fashion as they did prior to the mod. This should conserve the original wire setup. The only t...

Well, here I am again, I thought I'd give up but I had to diagnose this thing correctly before giving out the facts of what is happening. Still no luck in getting the car started. With all of the wires soldered together as you can see in the pics, I was getting spark to all of the wires only when th...

Almost forgot, yes, I did shave the rotor button as you did. The mark you see at 11 o'clock is the mark for the timing at TDC. This falls almost exactly where your does.

X-rad, I am going to be as precise as I can in describing how things have been done so far. Car--1989 Milano Ignition mod part There are currently three original wires for both + and - terminals. These wires are going exactly where they used to go before I removed the double male connectors on each ...

here are some pics...

X-rad, I did not have to move the coil, I got lucky because I had enough lenght on the three prong connector going to the sensor. Once everything was secured I noticed that the LED on the Module was on. There is no light coming from the LED in the optical sensor though. However, I loosened the brack...

Xrad, got the car towed home via tow dolly (I decided I'd better finish the job in my garage). Anyway, I did not get much done today, but I should have something done and let you know how things went tomorrow. I am doing the job in a Milano instead than a GTV6, basically the same. Only difference ar...

Yes, I have been 360 out before, my first time putting the dizzy in....still remember the feeling of watching the runner plenum fly up in the air and fire shooting out of the runners. :shock: Anyway, Your instructions are very accurate, I suffer of slight paranoya, but I like to make sure and ask a ...

I almost forgot, I am always careful when removing the dizzy (probably had it out close to 100 times :wink: , he gear did not move at all. Boy, do I wish I could convert this thing and use a crank pos sensor like the 164, it's just beautiful to never have to deal with too much alignments, however, i...

Xrad, before I removed the dizzy I set the engine to TDC mark number one, then I pulled the number one plug and made sure that the cylinder was on top , this is pretty much standard procedure I guess, I had alligned the cam and reinstalled the belt before I parked the car, (approximately 4 miles ago...

Xrad, sorry if I seem soo confused, the car is at my old place and I have no choice but to setup the dizzy here and then go and finish the job elsewhere. So, I am still a bit confused with the window thing, is this what you mean? If not I am assuning that the sensor should be at arrow two before I c...
