We are having a hell of a time getting this Bronco to fire up. Below are the details and any would be appreciated.
Here is the list of what I have:
1. MSD Ignition 6a 2600
2. Pertronix flame thrower distributor (this was sent back to them for testing and it works fine according to them).
3. All new wires, coil and plugs
4. Centch wiring harness
When the white wire from the ignition box is connected to the black wire from the distributor and the red wire from the distributor is run to the ignition power from the centech it will fire and run... but it runs really poorly and won't stay running. It sounds like the distributor is miss firing and sending mixed orders to the cylinders about what order they should fire in.
The wiring instructions from MSD say to run run the two wires from the distributor to the pigtail on the rear of the box. But when this method is used it gets zero spark and will not start.
Is there a chance that the box is fried and can MSD test this? It has about 15miles on it total.
Thanks for the help.
