FC Leading spark coil

Have been trying to convert FC engine in test stand to MegSquirt. Have Trailing coil firing and have spark. But the leading no spark. Is there a way to test the ignitor or this Coil? Is there a suitable after market replacement that would work with Megsquirt 2 Extra? Been at this for weeks. Not making much progress.

Worst case is to use MegaSquirt for Fuel only and install FB ignition system.

Comments most welcome.

Thanks.

Lol, when I had a MS I got leading spark only and never got the trailing coils working. It still ran pretty well.

You should ask in the megasquirt section.

Leading is the most important, Trailing is for emissions.

I will copy and paste my original Post on the MegaSquirt Section.

Thanks.
