Darkstars: the relutor ring is located on the front of the GM V8 motors. It is another version of the VSS sensor.

Reluctor ring = Middle of our crankshaft with notches on it for the CPS to read and the ecm to count for firing order.

No hes right, disconnect your crank sensor, then see how fast you can get the car to go.

I can get the specs from the one in the shop if you need em, and the ld9 has 5 notches I believe. That diagram is for the v6, and the v8 has 9 notches. In the other diagram on megasquirt, it shows the 4cyl notch locations.

Yes please I would greatly appreciate that.

i thought all the cars have a 7x reluctor wheel.. i know my ecotec crank does..

4 cyl and V6 both use 7 notch wheels.

Wheel should be within .02" of sensor at all times. Runout must be kept to a minimum.

Width on older engines is generally at least 3/8" and as much as 1/2." I've built wheels as narrow as 1/4" and they seem to work fine. Wider wheels are less susceptible to runout issues.

This article shows pictures, says this:
1996 VIN T – The crank for the 2.4L engine has a longer stroke, narrower rod journals, a smaller, but wider reluctor wheel that has all the notches in different locations, and a chain sprocket for the balancer. It’s a 4620 casting."

Notches are 7 degrees across gap. Very important to correctly locate notches relative to TDC. Might want to locate a reman crank from a chain type parts store to make some measurements. Don't use info from older 2.3 engines, it may not be correct.

That article is wrong about the notches, only one is different than the 2.3L, we use the 2.4L crank for the 2.6L stroker and can do a RW mod to use the stock computer. The mod consists of filling and moving one notch on the 2.4L crank to match the 2.3L. The 2.3L had a larger RW but it was also narrower.

I guess I'll have to count my notches on the crank again LOL

The 4 cyl must ignore some pulses then to get the firing right.

Oh well, I'm going EDIS anyway, so I will have total control of my timing from now on.
