unpug both your trailing wires while its running and you wont see much diff.

trailing edge helps clean up remaining gasses.

Also the T1 and T2 fire much more often than L1 and L2 So when attaching a timing light they look like they are firing more often... that is normal.

Are you sure you're not mistaking the trailing for the leading. The leading is firing every 180 degrees and the trailing every 360 degrees. Because the leading uses the same coil for both plugs, so the plugs are fired twice more.

Thanks
I just hope that EvilT2 will need more serious problems before giving up.

I've been trying to find the power loss problem on mine for a long time and changed almost every sensors and external parts and still looking to solve it. But one thing is positive now, I know how it works.
