Exclamation Dlidfis Results

Ok well after installing dlidfis, It doesn't start up any better, it idles lower, and it revs slightly slower than stock although it does rev slightly quicker from low rpm, such as under 2 k. I did install it slightly different than as per instructions, but i would think it would be ok, maybe some one could give me some pointers, I used the stock harness for the trailing, and just connected the blackw/ white stripe, on the positive terminal of the coil, and the normal yellow wire on the negatie, I then wired all positive coil terminals togeather using about 14-16 gauge wire. I also connected the stock leading black wire w/ a white stripe to one of the leading coils. i didn't use shielded cable from the pickups, but just 16 gauge wire, the coils are all accel, and the wires are 8 mm accel. new plugs about a week ago. can anyone help me out?


Thanks, Matt

If the positive wire running to one of the leading coils is only a 14 or 16 gauge wire it might not be able to get enough power to it. I think the stock wire is 12 gauge right. You might want to use 12 gauge to both the coils
