I updated my code to MS2 2.6
Okay today I tried to start my car and it flooded like crazy.

Well I looked at some of my settings and they humored me. 6ms priming pulse, and my ingition trigger was at 0.

So we got the thing to stop flooding like hell, but it likes to start backwards.

BEFORE the update, the car would start just fine when cold, and hotstart would flood a bit (which is prolly why my motor blew).

Now it pretty much wants to run backwards, I couldnt verify the [bad] timing on the distributor, it was way tooooo sunny out.

So i am simply looking for the ignition settings for a standard distributor with the megasquirt coil driver driving the coil.

The going high and inverted and everything. Thanks guys

Ignition Input Capture: Falling Edge (YMMV, according to the site a pulldown signal like ours should be rising edge but my car will not run at all if I try it with a rising edge setting)
Cranking Trigger: Calculated
Coil charging scheme: Standard Coil Charging
Spark Output: Going High (Inverted)

You have to set the trigger angle specifically for your engine based on the exact position of your distributor, I set mine to 12* (my idle advance) with the "trigger wizard" under "tools" and adjusted the distributor until I had 12* with the timing light on the engine. Then I checked that the timing light read the same as my ignition table while I revved the engine up to confirm that the ignition input capture setting was correct.

I also had a different sort of problem with my ignition input when I switched to v2.687. http://www.forums.turbobricks.com/showthread.php?t=92327
They left out a "filter" that was in v2.3 code. There is a v2.687t4 code supplied for people who have this problem. I would load the v2.687t4 just to be safe.
