V5 ignition timing
Hey gents, a quick question, how does the v5 AGZ get its ignition timing or spark timing? Is it from a cam postiion sensor or from the crank? According to Autodata it sits rear right of the engine. But I checked and cannot find it there.

Crank.
No 2 in this picture is the 60-2 toothed gear. The pickup sits in the block almost directly behind the oil cooler/heat exchanger on the front of the bolck down low

Re: V5 ignition timing
Thanx panic. So this would work exactly the same as the camshaft position sensor? Retarding/advancing ignition timing as needed? My reason for asking is, when the car is hot, i get a slight ping low down in the rev range, and in almost all gears. Kinda like a 1300 Tazz going up a hill and you try to accelerate

Re: V5 ignition timing
Well you should check if there is not an issue with the knock sensors then. Are you SURE SURE it is detonation , not some rattle...
Are you at least using 95 octane fuel?

Re: V5 ignition timing
Hi
Definately not a rattle. Im using 95 octane with the car yes. One day she is a beast, and the next she is a bit lazy. I will have a look at the knock sensors. Its wierd though, because autodata shows this vehicle, exact model and year should have a cam position sensor. Autodata also shows 2 knock sensors, one in front and the other at the rear. i will check tomorrow evening and let you know.
Thanx for the info and advice sir, its most appreciated

Re: V5 ignition timing
Cam posistion sensor sensor is used in conjunction with the crank sensor to determine fuelling order. Ie. Full sequential injection. It has no bearing on ignition timing.....
