InputTrigger/HondaFTwentyTrigger (2008-03-12 17:11:41)

Honda F20

From the S2000, this is now a popular engine conversion into older cars and Lotus 7 replicas as it is an RWD engine.

There are 12 equally spaced teeth 30 degrees apart, with an additional tooth positioned ~20degrees after one (~10degrees before the next).

The engine turns clockwise (apparently this is the only Honda VTEC engine that does) so the trigger pattern is:

..., 30, 30, 10, 20, 30, 30, ...

Suggesting that this trigger cannot be used with InputTrigger/ShortGapTrigger (See below). Missing tooth with advanced filtering, setting missing tooth threshold between 1.5 (30/20) and 2.0 (20/10) could work, if it starts with 1.75 it will run too (the wildest relative acceleration happens during cranking, because of the low RPM).

It does look as if the trigger could be turned over and refitted which would give the pattern:

..., 30, 30, 20, 10, 30, 30, ...

Which should make the missing tooth setup work correctly (after the 10,30) Marcell sees absolutely no reason why it should not work.


did you try with missing tooth setup

If gaps are 30,10,20,30 than a variation of InputTrigger/ShortGapTrigger that is not yet supported, I think (because it would also require shortgap at the next event to be fired, 180 degrees later in a 4cyl)
