94-95 Ignition Wiring
The 94-95 coils have (4) wire interfaces, not (3) as I previously understood. I believe that the 4th wire is for tach output. One of Dan's coil packs took a dump and we were showing only 1/2 of correct engine rpm on the tach. Megatune (MS gets rpm signal from CAS) showed actual rpm. Threw us a loop for a minute, as we were troubleshooting the parallel-MS system, we were at first trying to figure out why MS showed double the rpm.... then we realized that it was the tach that was showing half and MS was accurate.
It must not be until OBDII when the coils go to a (3) wire system and the ecu gives signal to the tach. I'm surprised no one has mentioned this before.

isn't that common knowledge? they changed in 95 mid year. 90-95 are 4 wire, 95+ 3 wire. same connector, just missing one lead on the coil and the plug/harness. what's strange is some 95 cars that say OBDI on the hood actually have the 3 pin coils and wiring of the OBDII cars. go figure.
