Re: still no spark

Not sure if you can put it on the wrong terminal or not... isn't one for the tach? They might be the same, I'm not sure there.....

Re: still no spark

This may sound real stupid, so don't get PO'ed.

Is there power to the end of the new wire at the HEI?

When I have problems with stuff like this, I just go back to the basics & start over checking everything.

use a test light / volt meter and make sure you have 12 volts to the coil .ck for broken wires on the pick up coil. ck the main coil with an oum meter. the only other thing is nte module. good luck
