3.3
Set the engine with no. 1 cylinder in the most advanced timing position. Not-
ing the direction of rotation, set the drilled disc opposite the pickup in the
position shown in FIG. 3. Some 12- and 16-cyclinder engines may require line
up on a different cylinder, typically the second cylinder in the firing order.
3.4
Adjust the tightening nut holding the pickup sensor to maintain an air gap as
specified below:
■
For 3/4" magnetic pickups 791015-1 and 791016-2, the gap shall
be set to .020" ± .005" (0.50mm ± 0.12mm).
■
For magnetic pickups 791035-2 and 791041-3 (12mm thread),
the gap shall be set to .014" ± .004" (0.35mm ± 0.10mm).
The center of the pickup face must line up with the center of each drilled hole
as the disc rotates.
3.5
Plug the 2-pin pickup connector fully into the mating connector of the
CD200D wiring harness.
3.6
ALTERNATIVE HALL EFFECT Pickup AND MAGNET DISC – On 4-cycle
engines, the disc mounts to the camshaft or other shaft operating at one-half
engine speed. On 2-cycle engines, the disc mounts to the engine crankshaft.
3.7
Set the engine with no. 1 cylinder 2.0 crankshaft degrees, 4-cycle or 1.0
degree, 2-cycle ahead of the most advanced desired timing point on the
compression stroke. This is the point where the Hall-effect pickup must line-
up with the edge of the magnet next to the “x” on the O.D. of the disc. When
mounting the magnet disc, be sure to observe the rotation indication marked
on the disc.
3.8
Mount the Hall-effect pickup sensor, FIG. 4, securely to a rigid bracket or
surface to maintain an air gap not exceeding .040" (1.0mm). The center of the
pickup face must also line up with the center of the disc as it rotates.
3.9
Plug the cable for the pickup into the 6-pin connector of the CD200D unit;
the 3-pin connector end plugs into the Hall-effect pickup.
4.0 IGNITION COILS
4.1
USE ONLY THE ALTRONIC COILS INDICATED HERE:
■
UNSHIELDED: 501061, 591010, 591040
■
FLANGE:
591012, 591018
■
SHIELDED:
501061-S, 591010-S
■
INTEGRAL:
591007, 591011A, 591011B
4.2
Mount the ignition coils as close to the spark plugs as possible keeping the
high-tension lead length to a minimum but also keeping temperatures below
200°F. (95°C.) during operation.
NOTE: Keep the pickup
sensor wires at least 2" (50 mm)
away from the coil primary wires and
at least 8" (200 mm) away from the
spark plug leads.
NOTE: On certain 12- and 16-cylinder
engines, a cylinder other than no. 1
(typically the second cylinder in the
firing order) must be used when lining
up the disc and pickup.
