Thought I'd get geared up for the spring
New plugs, rotor, cap, wires, and Bosch Blue coil. All installed, nice and neat, fired up the engine, ran fine for 60 seconds....then dead. No spark at all. Put all the old stuff back, still no spark. Is my new coil not compatible? It's the same part number as the one I've been running for 10 years. Did I smoke the MSD 6AL? Please advise |

What engine engine and distributor, and why did you use the green and purple?
The green and purple wires are for a magnetic pickup distributor. Pertronix is not considered a true magnetic pickup. |
