i like the videos, very informative.

[sarahandnemo]

sorry for all the questions,but would that make my car kick back when trying to start ?

[SteveXnycperformance]

@sarahandnemo yep.

[sarahandnemo]

thanks,but if my cap is not fully kissed together would that cause my car to run that bad ?

[SteveXnycperformance]

@sarahandnemo yep. the cap must be fully seated,heat will cause the cap to flex,making the cap electrode pull away from the rotor alignment.

[sarahandnemo]

i have a 94 t/a did valve job and changed cap and rotor,now my car is kicking back when starting and timing is too advance or off,did your job fix the problem ?

[SteveXnycperformance]

@sarahandnemo the valves might need adjusting, the ignition timing is ECM control and is non physical adjusting.

great video on the opticrap



[SteveXnycperformance]

@ghostle :) , It is now possible to swap the LS1 ignition system to the LT1 and the LT4 engine. It`s the only way to do away with the 'Opticrap".It is believe jeg`s or summit sells the item required for the conversion.

You miss the Camshaft key way lining thing 7:01 on the video real. You're holding the Opti Spark to high and your camera is not catching it. I was looking for a video like this because i shorted my Opti Spark out. This Major important detail is not showing on your Video... Bummer!!!!!!!!!!

@OneGoodBrotha Just skip to 7:25, you can see it there. Its is easy to tell which hole is for the dowel pin, it is bigger than the other two.
