I usually prefer to use the strobe light. In my mind setting it up with the engine running has got to be more acurate in the real world. However I have the same problem with my 400. Can set it up statically but just cannot get it right with the strobe  ???.

I've got it spot on statically. It's running sweet. So leaving the strobe light alone ;).
