I was running a Data Logger on my car today and i found something really weird. When i was on full boost and WOT, the timing said 68 degrees....... theres no way in fuck thats possible right?

 

yea....thats a bit high lol

 

possible fixes? besides new ecu?

 

what datalogger?

 

a thing called pocket logger.

cool... I know what that is, own it actually.. I asked that question actually because for some reason I thought you had a 240 and didn't know what worked with them.. but now I realize you have a totally different car, no idea why I thought you had a 240.

 

haha used to have a 240, no more though.


why would the timing be so high?

 

does it give a believeable number at idle? maybe it's not interpretting the number correctly?

 

idle its at like 3 to 4

 

That pocketlogger page says its range is +/- 64 degrees.....
It's J1979, so it's possible the Pocketlogger software is junk and it's looking at some garbage OBD2 parameter, or calculating something wrong. It happens.
