Ref: UrS4 does not start.
I observed relative location (timing) of signals from CMPS (cam, I also
use Hall sensor term) and CKPS (crank) on my (running) 200tq and UrS4.
200tq has perfect timing - TDC pulse is right on the middle of the
negative pulse from Hall sensor, which is a rectangular pulse. Bottom
of the negative pulse is not horizontal but the pulse still have
vertical front and tail (a better term should exist, I think). The
ratio of pulse widths is 8-10 to 1 (CMPS to CKPS). On S4 TDC this ratio
wa s 2-3:1. This is just visually, I did not measure the width.
But I can not call signal from S4's Hall sensor a rectangular pulse.
Here how it looked like:

In 200tq the bottom of the negative pulse looked like this:

|AB| would be different on these two pics (different scale).
I was expecting to see TDC signal not aligned with CMPS signal and this
would explain no start condition. But looks like relative position of
the pulses is good, but I don't know if the signal produced by CMPS on
S4 is good. Anyone has comments?
Also, anyone knows a source for fittings which can work with regular
fuel pressure gauge from a FLAP. The set I have has no fitting for S4
(but I can use it on 200tq). Maybe I don't have fuel pressure. I can
hear that fuel pump works though.
