I know your the man to ask, would a weak ignitor cause my leading to only fire one rotor or would that be a coil issue? I have tried to different coils, one stock and one MSD Blaster and the problem doesnt go away. I run just the trailing and it idles fine, I run just the leading and it misses like crazy and then stalls. Gimme your opinion please sir

 

BUMP:Ok anyone, not just Jeff specific.

 

whats your setup? stock? stock has 1 ignitor and 1 coil to do both leading plugs, if its not firing on 1 rotor, then its either the cap, rotor, plug or the wire.



if the ignitor or coil was bad then both leadings would have problems.

 

What he said.

 

Thanks thats what I thought, I have had nothing but problems with my stock ignition. I think Im gonna ditch it for direct fire and **** can my Accel wires as well. Thanks for the advice.

 

Get NGK wires. Also install a relay to feed the ignitors and coils full battery/alternator voltage instead of the stock ancient ignition switch wires, which have a fair amount of resistance. Does your ignition switch get warm when the engine's been running for a while?

 

Sweet idea, I've got some old igniters from a MX6 GT I used to drive back in the day(2.2 Turbo) you think I could use them to fire my leading coils? I also have some from a 92 MX6 LX that were in the distributor and look like GM modules. I'll get some pics later of them and post them tommorow if I can.

 

Yeah, you could probably use them. My advice is to bench test them first.
