Possibly acceleration and time based... anticipate the next firing based on the previous.. it would be a somewhat coarse method and not as finely controlled as using crank inputs though.

I've been wondering about this for a while now with the EB. He's going to come up here end of next week and I will play with the software and a timing light. Then we'll know for sure, one way or t'other.

I wanted to do that the day I first installed it but couldn't due to missing the cable...
(PS did Matt or Neal ever use a timing light, or just a scanner.. because it won't show up on a scanner...)
