Dual Map Ignition

Post by -Mick- »

Anybody running a dual map ignition system on a dual fuel vehicle :?: I've seen some quality units around for $300 plus but wanted to hear of others experiences before considering something like that. I'm sceptical about timing being the cure to all my gas problems when the engine is still relatively low compression, the plugs are for petrol etc......

What kind of benefits have people gotten out of them :?:

The engine is an injected 4y and right now I get about 350km from 70l petrol, 300km from 60l gas....... that wouldn't worry me if it was fast but its definently not :lol: The engine is in top nick too rebuilt 10k ago by the previous owner and real good compression :)

Cheers
