Quick Question Plz Help
I have the msd wires on and I was hearing a spark while I was driving. The wire to the coil is very loose and when I checked the boot it has been burnt inside...Is it possible that there are 2 different boots? One for the plugs, and then a different one for the coil? And is there a way that I can replace just the boot that got burnt withouht buying the $70.00 wires all over again?Thx

Man. This sucks really bad. I either fried my coil or something is seriously wrong now. It wont turn it just cranks and cranks but never turns. could this be a bad coil or what? I cant even get it to the shop if I cant drive it.

RE: Quick Question Plz Help
Ok thx for input. I just ordered another msd coil. The tip of the coil has turned white and looks like I did somehow fried it. I guess those loud sparks I heard while I was driving was not a good sound. I hope this is all it is. Car was working GREAT before I decided to mod the hell out of it. Im sure I installed everything correctly exept the damn wires and coil.

RE: Quick Question Plz Help
OMFG, to add to this problem I forgot to tag my spark plug wires and now I am not sure of the placement. I got the Chiltons manuel and know the fireing order. But the new msd cap does not have any #'s on it! and of course I threw my old cap away... Can anyone here show me an alternate diagram or even one that you make up. I think I have been misfiring while using the wrong wire to the coil causing loud sparks, really crappy luggy idle, and a burnt spark plug boot. Maby even a fried coil. How bad is this and could there be any worse damage later due to this? Btw would the car even start if I misplaced the wires? Ty very much for any help, im pretty stressed about this[&o]
