help on dizzy/megajolt
Turbo Mini Forums

Hi all,

I have searched the forums and web, but still finding it difficult to get the info I need.

I am build a turbo engine and really need some help in regards to ignition please.

I have bought majority of my megajolt set-up and this time is definitely a MAP Version one , the only thing I need is the VR sensor and bracket now. The only problem I have is how to set this all up, as I have no clue.

So I was thinking about buying a cheap dizzy for the time being, untill I understand how the Megajolt works. If I do buy a dizzy do I need a turbo version one and how do identify this is a turbo one or can I just use a 1275 N/A MG Metro one?

Cheers

Bobby

I fitted megajolt within a day. If you have the diagrams its not hard...

Plus the first trip that i would be taking would be to a rolling road to have it set up. Why would you do it twice?

unfortunatly I do not have any diagrams, as i bought a used unit, does anyone have a copy that they can email me

just use the MJ site? its explains how to set up the pulley etc pretty simple. you basically want the missing tooth 90 deg off the sensor when at "top dead centre"

For the crank sensor, get Tom Fenton to machine your damper and supply a sensor bracket. They are fit and forget items then.

T@z that is exactly what I needed, thanks a lot for that, that is a big help. Cheers

MED do a nice trigger wheel and sensor bracket you still need to cut a tooth off tho if you get one

Done now needs redoing lol

Thanks for the help guy, I already have the trigger wheel, one that is machined into the original pulley, the only thing I do need now is the VR Sensor and Sensor Bracket

Kappa, in in the same boat with regards to MJ, there's lots of use full information on autosportslabs website and forum.

i must of spent many nights now reading up on it and think i've got it sorted.

sorry for hi-jacking Kappa, but what screened cable have you guys used for the VR sensor, looked on trigger-wheels and they want £10 for 5 meters but its the £10 postage i'm not willing to pay

what I mean is I think there is some sort of stuff like sting inside it.

I used the cable from the link above recently when I rewired my engine. It does have string in it but it wasn't a issue :)

Hi Lee.pb that will be good to have a that post, thanks a lot for that advise
