The new ones are made in China. I ordered another one so I guess we will see if that fixes it.

There was a guy racing against us last year and he had a hell of a time with his grid. It wouldn't do the same thing twice. An MSD tech spent 8 hours with him trying to figure it out and finally pulled that cable completely out of the car and that cured it. That cable is unshielded and effects the grid and the rest of the wiring.

It's free to pull that wire out and try it.

Yes, I was told not to leave the cable attached which I do not.
