  1. Are you talking about the service manual supplement? If so yes. After looking again I found it. So for anyone else here it is. BTDC 15* +/-3 @800 rpm
  2. How may degrees of timing do I need to dial in? Or do I put it at 0 and let the computer figure it out?
  3. Anyone know where I can find an ECM for the ea81-t or are there any alternative options for getting this running. Just spent six months rebuilding a turbo brat and now it’s just sitting there.
  4. This car has the EA81T engine. Does anyone have a part number for the four wire ignition module? i have triple checked all the relays coils wires ect. I have correct proper power to the coil but just can’t get a spark and the ECM tells me I have no ignition pulse.
  5. So I had the 84 Brat at a friends house In his shop so I could paint it. Anyhoo I was letting it warm up Before I drove it home, after about 20 min or so the car just cut off. No stuttering or odd noise it just stopped. It has fuel. I even drained the tank and refilled it. What I don’t have is spark. I have checked and replaced the coil but that doesn’t help. (It has power). Replaced the wires the cap and rotor. The ECM is telling me that I don’t have ignition pulse. My distributor has the four wire type of pickup which I can’t seem to find anywhere. Can I replace this with a two wire set up? Or am I missing something? This was my grandfather’s car which was purchased new in 84. He can’t drive now so he gave it to my daughter. I just spent seven months rebuilding the thing, fixing 35 years of rust and some bad body work from a rear end hit and of course new paint. Thanks everyone.
