Malky,
Yes, but only 2. 1 was used in conjunction with an MSD 7 and I found it by getting shocked outta my socks by accident when i brushed against it while testing it to see what was wrong with it. I found it.
The other was a fracture right just inside where the plastic connector body is molded around the wires at the cap base where the wires go through the actual housing of the dist. Heat caused the wires to become brittle and they just fractured... they'll all do that when old enough or hot enough to harden the wire covering.
Franky,
It's close to midnight. Been a looong long day today. Tomorrow we'll do the easy HEI test to see if we can figure out what's wrong.
First tell us what the thing is not doing or why you think it may be broke, just to refresh my feeble memory.
Food for thought... you can check to see if the thing is grounded with an ohmmeter or you can get lazy like I do sometimes and just Frankenstein the thing up, complete with extra wires running all over just for giggles. run a jumper wire from the housing to an engine bolt or alternator case and see what happens.
Have you actually checked the resistance of this MSD coil on the primary and the secondary with your ohmmeter????
And you do have the extra ground strap under the coil right???
Homework time.
