Thread: Distribuator Trouble

Tweet

I need some thought on what could cause this. I have had 2 distribuators go out in 6 months first one Enging Works second one MSD both were ready to run I have my 12 volts to the coil for some reason they just quit.

I don't know a thing about the Engine Works, but the MSD Ready to Run has all of the electronics (computer, in other words) packed in that housing. There are usually two things that will fry them. Water and since they are pretty well sealed. The second, voltage surges. Then there is that old bug-a-boo, it just happened and you got the bad one (or two)

Send it back and ask for a diagnostic

Myfirst thing will be to check the voltage my alternator is putting out when I get the new distribuator in.
