Joe,

It can be set both ways. They can fire at the same time or you can split firing the plugs and specify the time delay. Better fuel burn with splitting the plugs according to Adkins but I am not sure what affect this would have on SAG. I think I want mine firing together.

Are you firing both plugs (same rotor) at the same time or do you have the leading and trailing split? Might not make any difference.

The MicroTech is setup to manage a Rotary – so it has independent firing parameters for leading and trailing plugs.
