I have an msd digital 6. about the alternator I'm not too sure what to do with two of the wires. The big black one goes to the main plug on the firewall but the other two small ones I don't have hooked up to anything right now because I took the ballast, and that little stock ignition box...

ramcharger- I've tried that and it won't spark to the ground if the dist. is in the motor. I've done that test. But then I took the dist. out and spun it by hand and it sparked to the ground perfect. 440 duster- when I spin the dist. by hand it's out of the engine. could there be a...

I never checked the voltage while cranking but I know it has like 12 volts when it's not cranking the cam is timed right and so is the ignition or it was when it stopped working

I posted a thread on this like 4 months ago. I thought I fixed it and ended the thread but I didn't so I'm going to give it another shot. i have a 360 in a 64 dart. I had it running for a while then I drove it for the first time and it only lasted 3 mins and then broke the ignition...

I figured it out. I tested the motor to see if it had power and it did. the header bolt had 1.7 volts. I did have the motor grounded too. THe alternator was messed up. I had to disconnect the alternator and then it started for a little. Now I'm just having carb problems. Pain in the...

I'm wondering if the timing chain jumped a tooth also I think that is going to be the next thing I check tomorrow. I already watched the rotor spin while I cranked the motor over. I'm going to check the timing tomorrow thanks

duster318- I'm sure it's always 12v because I have both red wires hooked to the battery. Today I tried a differnt distributor I had laying in the garage. I hooked it up, removed a spark plug, layed it on the header and spun the distributor with my hand and watched the spark plug fire so I...

thanks fishy68 that sounds better. I'll go ahead and do that. thanks

yeah I think it's the dist. but I don't really have the money for a msd one so I'm going to get one from the junk yard. Do you think that those old distributors can't handle it or what? THANKS -matt

I was talking to the msd tech's today. I got a little closer but still no go. He was mentioning the ground wire situation also. He said run it back to the battery so I'm going to do that the next chance I get. I did like 10 test's they had me do. I took the coil wire off the dist. and put it...

Ok I worked on it all day. I went and bought a msd digital 6-plus 350 bucks and it wasn't the msd box, because it did the same thing. I can't get power to the coil. I don't understand it. I have the small red wire hooked to the blue 12v wire that goes to the ballast. I have the 12v run to...

The dist. didn't move. I'm sure that the black wire is grounded good. ummm.... I think your right fishy68 I'm going to go buy an ohm meter and start testing this stuff. Also I will check to make sure I don't have spark. When I pull the throttle back I can see fuel shoot down into the carb...

ok I didn't want to ask this question because it seams repetative but here it goes. I have a '64 dart. It had a three wire alternator on it when I recieved it with a slant six. I converted it to a 360 with an msd 6a. I started it last mon. and I even drove it down the block for 1 min. but...

I had a question. I have a 64 dart it had a points ignition /6. Now I put an electronic dist. with an msd ignition and I'm not quite sure how to hook it up. I looked at this http://msdignition.com/pdf/6%20series/pdf20.pdf but I don't know if that is right or if that is with a points dist...
