You want one configured for the old style CAS. This is what I did and it confirmed that the CAS was causing my problems (same as yours). I finally gave up on the crank-mounted CAS and went back to the original style CAS. No more high rpm mis-fires. Mark S.

I still have questions about how my CAS is wired, on the 13BREW the CAS is = next to the trigger wheel, it consists of two hall effect sensors, one to c= ount every 30 degress,and one that counts every 360 degrees. The EC2 has th= ree wires going out to the CAS- one to provide voltage to both sensors, and= one wire each (#22=A0 &=A0 #23 ) to read each sensor. My question is- = is polarity a possible issue with hall effect sensors?
=A0
Also, does the EC@ fire both leading and trailing plugs simultaneously= ?
=A0

Grounded until further notice
