I just made some updates to the manual page to hopefully make it a bit clearer how to set things up.

Update, I have spark and car run using STD inj outs using the Settings for toothed wheel and CAM setup. I checked with my NOID light and don't have anything on the MS3X inj outs. I verified Power is good. Rechecking the wiring now.

With the same or different settings?
Make sure the MS3X plug grounds are grounded.

I feel dumb. I was working on the engine and moved wires around and cleaning things up and missed the ground wire for the MS3X board. I now have fuel and spark but engine stawls after start and idle up.

OK, I have fule and spark with CAM setup and MS3X injectors. I did a log and it looks like I am over fueling now. But something still seem off. Even in Batch fire mode. I am attaching the log and msq if it is helpful. i also noticed I had my old VE table loaded which would explain my over fueling.

Had to keep my foot on the pedal a bit. You can see the TPS was at a few percent. Noticed it was kinda rich, which may have been the issue. I'll load my previous VE table and see if it does better.

Edit: nevermind I found it in the manual what i was looking for.

OK, Tried to get full sequential working. I finally got the car to start, it idles up and then slowly drops to a stall. If I switch back to my STD injector outs it idles fine. I also had to bring IAC steps up just to get it to somewhat stay idling. Not sure why it is so different. Here is a log, I really don't know what to try. one other thing, the car start hard and some times back fires. Is it lean on cranking?

I got the car to idle fine and just have the iss of starting. Frank_Ster reminded me that on Basic trigger I have the option for GM-ByPass control. Toothed wheel doesn't have this option. Any chance this could be an option under toothed wheel? I can run a relay off the starter like Frank_ster did for now.
