How can I run a dual plugged 4 cylinder engine with megasquirt?
Want to fire both plugs on compression stroke.
On paper a y split before the coil pack to another coil pack could work but it might half the power to each coil giving two half powered sparks? Or I use 2 edis4 units and run them in tandem?
Any ideas on how to get this fireworks display going?
Thanks

Re: dual plug setup
Two EDIS4s in tandem should get you there no problem.

Re: dual plug setup
So both units can share the vr sensor and then both PIPs & SAWs are wired to the relevant ms pins?
Hmm.. why not! ???

Re: dual plug setup
Exactly, although I'd only use one PIP wire.
