MSD coil

[gareth08]

If you're using the MSD ignition with an MSD dizzy and the blaster coil only then the coil is fed directly from the Ignition Modul.Orange is + and Black is -.

Is your coil earthed ok.
What Plug leads you using!!!!

You CAN'T use solid core leads with an MSD.

Yeah as you say,the coil is only wired by 2 wires from the MSD control box.

Yes I do have solid core cables,but that only affects the rev limiter. So i'm told.

Noooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!

Theres you're problem.
Solid core lead's.
From MSD tech info (Solid core spark plug wires CANNOT be used with an MSD ignition)

They cause a higher voltage build up in the inductive side of the ignition which in turn will increase the output to the coil via the capacitive discharge.
New leads , new coil , check it is eathed ok and away you go

Yes

Yes

MSD tech info + I was an electrical/mechanical enginneer which helps

MSD Heli-core or any helically or spiral wound wire ones.

Summit do loads of different types just depends on how much you want to spend
