I have a 2000 ranger 2.5L 5 speed.
I recently bought an obd 2 bluetooth reader and installed torque pro on my phone.
I've been looking at different things and ran across the ignition advance gauge.
If anyone can check their readings to confirm mine I'd appreciate it.
At idle I have 8-10 * of advance, when under cruise I show ~25* of advance.
At full throttle I drop back to 8-10* of advance, regardless of rpm.
This makes no sense to me, in fact it seems backwards.
I should have full advance ( 32* or so ) somewhere around 3,000-3,500 rpm, but only show 8-10*.
The engine seems to be done accelerating by 3,500 rpm.
I was surprised by this since I don't have a tach in my dash and thought I was reving much higher than this.
It sounds like I should be hitting the rev limiter at this point.
I also have some odd fuel pressure readings, anywhere from 68-81 psi.
This doesn't update often, I assume it's not displaying correctly.
Thanks to anyone that can help.
