SNAKE MINI DIZZY

Description

The world's smallest device designed to completely remove the OEM distributor and convert to Individual Coils.

Despite the age of Honda's "Distributor Era" engines (B, D, F and H series), they are still very popular in the tuning community. A significant drawback of these older engines is the distributor ignition system, which includes a high-voltage section and “temperamental” VR sensors.

Our Device eliminates these shortcomings, enhancing engine performance and reliability.

Compatible with OEM and Standalone ECUs.


Advantages

  • Improved ignition timing precision up to 0.1 deg at 14000 RPM.
  • Better spark energy without the inefficiencies of a traditional distributor system.
  • Easy Setup via Bluetooth Connection.
  • Less cluttered engine compartment, making maintenance and modifications easier.
  • Compatible with OEM and Standalone ECUs.

Plug Types

Depending of the year of production here are three different types of the Distributor plug(s).
  • OBD1 Type Plug

  • OBD2A Type Plug

Bluetooth Connection

SNAKE MINI DIZZY has a built-in Bluetooth and a PC Service Tool.
Pairing a new Device

Pairing a new Device
When connecting to the device for the first time, connection must be configured. Follow this simple steps:

  • Turn ON the Ignition.
  • Make sure your PC's Bluetooth is active.
  • Start Snake MD0 Tool
  • You will see a message Searching Devices....
  • Wait about 10 seconds, Service Tool will automatically found the device and setup the connection.
  • Finally you will see the Serial Number of the connected device SnakeMD0-SPP[xxx]



Connect to the Paired Device

Connect to the Paired Device
After the first connection, Service Tool will automatically reconnect to the paired device.
You'll see a message Waiting for Device No xxx.

If you need to connect to another device, just press the button with the Bluetooth icon. The Service Tool will remove the paired device and start searching for available ones.
