As everybody knows i just bought a MSD ignition 6A. I instsalled it today along with a new set of plugs.When started it and went out it had NO power at all it didetn matter where my foot was on thethrottle... *great I think* so i get home unplug the thing and take off agian SAME thing.. i'm thinking that it might have shorted the plug wires but i havent checked yet *they look like they are orginal*
sooo PLEASE HELP!!!!

 

maybe you are only running on the trailings now?? are your spark plug wires hooked up to the right plugs.

 

yes everything was installed right i havent checked spark yet i got about 15 Ohms on the wires

 

Guys please i need help on this

 

did you hook the msd on the trailing or leading?

 

OK i'll do a complete run through now that i remember
something that was very very bad...
ok first i pulled the coil brought in the house opend
up the back plate and soderd 2 leads one on to
incoming cream and one on the incoming black (i hate
cuting the wireing harness for anything) i sealed it
up then put it back into the car after i mounted the
MSD 6A i wired the red to the cream incoming the white
to the black incoming and the orange (i know i placed
them right becuse i double checked it) to the postive
out going and the black to the negitve out going. i
connected it to the batery and then i started it up
(notice i forgot something very importent) i left took
her around the block thats when i noticed the problem.
i brought her back looked in the engine bay and gess
what... i forgot the plug in the coil.... so i unhook
the MSD (wasent hard soderd in) hook up the coil and
i'm still having the problem..

allright there is everything i did it from the FC3Spro
site

 

do you know this to be a good ignition box? they do have a tendancy to be/go bad in many vehicles. I know dodge owners who drive around with spares. (no ****... they're my friends)

Just a thought....

 

i just bought the thing brand new

 

call up msd, their tech support guys know their stuff. i haven't needed help with the rx, but i have with other cars.

check this out too, maybe somethings mis-wired:
