Im running a Malory distributor and a HiFire module on a Blue coil. ITs been fine for about a year now with no issues. The last few weeks I have had the ignition just cut out and tach drops to Zero. Coast in gear to find a spot to pull over the ignition starts again and tach reads normal and drives without issue. Is this a sign of a module going bad? I noticed the heat /sound pad on the fire wall is falling off in my engine compartment too. It will touch the coil and coil wire. I'm thinking this may be giving me troubles too. Should I pull the pad? try to reglue? What kind of glue do I need? I need to get this resolved OR I WILL be on the side of the road with a not start condition at the worst possible time (NIGHT/RAIN/TRAFIC)

When you buy a new Mallory Unilite module, you may want to stock up on spares as well. As you may know, MSD bought out Mallory and I think have discontinued the line of Unilite distributors. Replacement parts, such as modules, caps rotors, are still available, but who knows for how long. Check Jegs, Summit, and Amazon for prices. Components directly from Mallory were available on Ebay at one time, so you might check there also.
