Oh Jerry, sorry but I just cannot stop chuckling about buying a new module from “kaka part”. Lol
I may just end up running a common standard 4-pin GM module on an external mount near the coil.
Jon, that was my exact thought when I was watching the scope- the coil looks weak to me, but I’m no expert, and it’s been so long since I’ve used a scope to evaluate an ignition. I found the Heathkit scope at a garage sale for $20 last year, and haven’t had the chance to use it. Great for points ignition, but I have never used a scope on an HEI, so I don’t know what it’s supposed to look like.
I usually have an old coil laying around the garage, but it must have ended up in the dumpster, so the only way I can be sure is to buy another. I think I’m going to ditch the external S10 HEI type for a tower coil-
Any recommendations on a tower coil that won’t cost upwards of $90? What about a MSD BLASTER II?? Hoping to find one that is black and not fancy looking….
I have a feeling the coil may be the problem… either way, the module is also going to get replaced with a GM or better module.
The video of the scope is the last cylinder in parade mode, and you can see the scope line jutting left and right every time the engine misses..
