    MSD problems

    Got it to fire, after talking to MSD tech he assured me that everything was fine when I was getting spark to the #1 plug wire. Instructed to use starting fluid. I dumped a **** load in, and it fired. Amazing that it would not catch with just gas, as much as I put down the carb. Could be a...

    MSD problems

    well I was back at it today. I am getting spark to a plug. I just stuck an old plug onto #2 wire and turned it over. It was firing the plug. I noticed the MSD 6AL box red light flashes a few times and then goes out when I turn the key on. I believe the owner manual says it should stay lit at all...
