    Ok guys it's being over a year now since I started building this car.
    In that time I've had it running for 2 days.
    I had the engine set up with a wolf 3d v4 with exel coils and oo8 ignitors.
    Had trouble getting the engine to run on the front two cylinders.
    Eventualy I got it running pritty well for two days then the problem happened again.
    I ditched the exel coils for some gen3 holden coils with in built ignitors so that I could run direct waste spark. Got the electritian to do the wiring this time.
    Car ran on all four but rough as.
    I thought that the injectors might be the issue so I took that side of the loom apart.
    The last owner had used only one signal wire for every two injectors. I got the electritian to redo this so that each ingector had a signal wire like there supost to. But now two of the coils arn't firing again.
    I'm now thinking the computer is getting a confued signal or something.
    Has anyone had any similar tuning problems with wolfs. If so how did you fix it.

    Help me out guys I'm dying to drive this car.

    There is a problem with Wolf's and EMF or resolution of the CAS, something like that.



    PM 1bam777 he know's about it, think it may be solved changing the CAS signal from sine to square wave...

    It sounds like it may be CAS related (assuming the engine you are talking about has a CAS). Read the Wolf manuals and set the trigger signal sensitivity to vary throughout the rev range.

    Also the CAS signal is a series of pulses, neither square or sine wave.

    You'd be best off trying to diagnose what actually is your problem with a multimeter and the hand controller.

    Is the RPM shown on the hand controller correct?
    Are the coils and ignitors getting good 12V and earth?
    Is your timing set correctly?
    Do the ignitors do internal dwell? Are the ECU dwell settings correct?
