    Sorry for the silly question, but is the Mondial QV considered an Even, or Odd fire engine?
    I am setting up my new MegaSquirt, and it is one of the data points to enter.
    Thanks
    Jeff

    Even fire (the time between each firing event is the same).

    If “Odd Fire” is employed for engine performance management the Mondial engine emits a unique galloping sound. SG

    All,
    Thanks for the response, I have a little better understanding now. Some V-6 motors utilize an odd firing , while virtually all V-8s are even fire.
