Just a thought on Gas engines you could use the points as an encoder for engine speed.
That setup is just what I have been looking for!
A peerless belt drive unit would work much more precisely with a lot less
cost and fuss.
Sheer brilliance! 🙂 Well done!
LOL I found my way here cause I want an arduino cruise control on my VW diesel. I like the wood processor set up!
Can the Arduino run without the latptop hooked up to it?
Awesome hacking with an Arduino and practical to boot.
WHAT A CLUNKER
just pure awesome to put the arduino into a project like this! im proud of the work you have done!
