So, as the title says.
Do these multi spark systems work with DJet? If so, are there improvements? I am not looking for more power, but more MPG...more efficient burn. Rich |

The reason the points pit is the current flows thru them to operate the coil. With MSD using point only a very small current flows thru the points to signal the MSD unit. The current thru the coil is done by the MSD unit. The rubbing block for the points will still wear so the will still need periodic adjustment/replacement.
I don't know if the MSD will interfere with the D-jet or L-jet systems, one or both use the tach signal from the points to determine if the fuel pump should be energized or not. MSD can work with points or a mag pick-up, they also provide wiring diagram to wire in an ignition kill switch by grounding one of the signal wires. I am hoping the MSD I just installed on my old RV will drop my idle HCs just a little so I can get passed smog again. I figured I had is sitting around I could try it. Jim |
