Converting a Honda Dizzy

Post by whittlebeast »

I was having trouble getting rock solid timing using the stock Honda 24 tooth crank sensor even after I tried a Hall sensor for the cam sync. I was also fighting starting issues and sync issues. I wanted to go to more teeth so the ECU will see a tooth every 18 crankshaft degrees compared to 30 degrees with the 24 tooth wheel. I purchased the following parts.

A 40 tooth 2.5" OD steel gear from an online supply house
A 3/8" OD threaded Motec Hall sensor designed for motorcycles
A Accel points eliminator optical pickup that required a pullup resistor

Here is the composite log with me reving the motor.

The timing appears to be rock solid with no drift and easy starting. I had to purchase 6 of the gears and only used one. Contact me if anyone can use a 2.5" OD, 12 mm ID gear.

Hope this helps people that may be fighting similar issues.

I think I still have one of the gears I used.
