I dont see anything abnormal in the hall effect captures.
The reason I wanted to see the current ramp was not for the condition of the coil. but to see if the transistor or mosfet that turns on and off the coil was working properly.
1-5 sec/div should be plenty of time on the screen. When you do this turn up your samples up all the way, snap the throttle during the capture.
Your capture is probably going to be too big in MB to post here during the 1-5sec/div capture, so you will probably have to put it on the public login on the drop site.
You say there was no luck/no problem with cap/rotor?
How many channels on your scope? 2 or 4?

I have done a test run on my neighbors car.
So i know if this is what you wanted...
Coil Current and Wire from Coil > Dist.
First idle,then on the Pedal and back to idle.
It´s also an MK3 but only 1,6l engine, but same buildup
also with Distri. And it doesn´t run so fine either.

The third Motor in the Table - Engine Code ABU.

A Picture how this Motor looks like:

But can someone explain how i can load big files up ?
Here i always get a server fault.

Here is the file :
http://www.speedyshare.com/files/28671095/zu2-g3-rua.psdata

and a second with Current and Cable Dist > Zyl.1

Ok, then i will set it to the 27KW settings in the Tab and try to
push up the rates as much as it goes...

This car had a not right sitting Plug at Zyl. 3.
I wiggeled a little and it came off at once, i plugged it
back on correct and now it runs much better.
It has about 143 000 miles (230 000km) on its back
I looked at cap and rotor and they are the next parts it gets.
I am suprised that you say it would seem to be lean,
its not much, but it smokes a little and it smells like
that i would have thought it is to rich.But he doesn´t
drive much in the last 3 Months, so it could be the standing around.

I will do some more samples tomorrow, and of the
original problem car, as i get it here in the afternoon.

But this one,even if 5 Years older and with more miles down,
it has a "higher" Burnline, than the other one.This one has
between 1-1,5 KV and the other only about 0,3-0,5KV

that would mean there is a low resistance in the circuit or rich condition in the cylinders on the low kv vehicle.

Hi,
I uploaded some Files to a Public-Folder on the Dropsite.
But i don´t know how i can link to them.
Z1 = Current + Zyl.1
Z2 = Current + Zyl.2
Z3 = Current + Zyl.3
Z4 = Current + Zyl.4
ZS = Current + Cable Coil > Dist
LS+Z1 = Lambdasignal at the ECU-Pins + Zyl.1

We build in a complete Original new Distri, and switched
over all Leads from a other Car.
It runs better, but you can still hear and feel that
it has missfires here and there (PLOPP in the exhaust).

We sprayed all things like Intake and exhaust with a
leak detection spray,but could not find any leaking.
No changing in running or rpm rissing.

He told me that the Lambdasensor was replaced
about 1/2 year ago by the first dealer he was with
the problem.
The Car only has only one sensor.
No Codes stored in the ECU, but i did not expect any.

This ist a Singlepoint Injektion, there is only 1 Injektor.
No, i don´t have a First-Look Sensor, but a WPS500 if that is o.k.

The Pico is no eqipment of a dealer, this is my own one,buyed privat,
used privat (most times)

You can clearly hear the "Plops", and i also did the cool
"Paper half over the Tail-Pipe Test" - and it sucks the paper
if it happens (that you can hear it).

The ignition timing was checked 3 Times,and by myself again,
that is correct.Also the Timing belt that is on the correct spot.
It is intermittent.It can run fine for 5-10 seconds and then
it does one "Plop", or it Plops 2-3 times right together, and then
runs smooth again.Then maybe after 1 or 2 seconds one Plop
again or for 10 seconds nothing.I would say that it is worse
when the engine was driven hard, so that it is really hot.

I had the WPS hooked up but i didn´t get a real good image.
It´s not so easy as on the video, or maybe it´s my setup.

I did 2 files of the Intake, from cranking and running, that seemed
to work - and didn´t really look bad, but i don´t have a identical
car to compare with.I loaded them to the Dropsite (Intake-*).

I will give it another try on the other Car of my neighbor,
and then at the next Weekend on this one.
