I finally got my '74 Formula running with a factory HEI. 12 volts supplied by running resistor wire to a relay and sending the 12 volts back from the battery. I am running a 990 module and stock coil. It does have some advance issues, that I have to get through. I gave it a wash and put it away for the night. Tried to start it today - no spark. Question 1. How long will the module last without grease? I only found out module needed grease after reading other posts here. Question 2. Is it possible too many volts are getting to the distributor, cooking the coil or module? I haven't been able to test the exact voltage at the dist. If not, does anyone have any other ideas?

thanks,
Frank
