Author: Subject: Another Megajolt Question

Fuses were discussed on the megajolt forum - you should have a small-value fuse for the MJ unit itself (3 or 5 amps) and a higher-rated one for the coil (10 amps).

I only fitted one 5A fuse originally, and the general opinion there was that I had been lucky not to pop the fuse up to that point.

Trigger wheel should hold with the bolt. Once you are happy with location you could drill through and tap for a grub screw or even dowel to be sure.

Trigger wheel and vr sensor bracket looks good. Make sure there isint any movement in the bracket, if it 'bounces' you can get a bad signal.

Probs a good idea to fuse the main feed for the megajolt, no harm in doing so. Depends where you are taking feed from and if you are going through a bulkhead (with grommet) as well i guess.

ok all done, I fitted 3 bolts to the trigger wheel and tapped into the pulley (all at 120deg to each other to keep the balance

Fitted a 10amp fuse for the MJ will reduce it later as thats all I had around at the time, it runs ok its slightly out about 2 deg IE when it reads 10 deg on the pulley with a strobe light I am getting 12deg on the laptop throu megatune. I have the version 3 so I dont think I can do much right now. Can I use V4 software with a V3 board?

so far running a max of 36 advance on a crossflow, will play aournd with maps later.

Thanks to all for the help!

are any of you guys using your megajolt with an xflow engine?
How did you mount the vr sensor? I can't find a decent way to fit mine.

did you not see my attached photos? I used a brakcet that holds onto the bolts of the sump. Works pretty well too
