Urgent Need: 94-95 Coil Pack
 
Dan (whaaaaaaamx5) drove down from NC to hang out with us today, and when he went to leave, his coil pack died. ?!!? Anyone local have one that we could pick up tomorrow? Thanks

I can't help with the coil pack, hopefully someone can help though.
What kind of dwell is he running and is his spark set to non-inverted, flashed the firmware with it hooked up? Any idea why it died at all?

Ben 11-10-2007 10:17 PM

Coils were unplugged and battery was disconnected when the MS was hooked up. Battery was reconnected, firmware was flashed, map was downloaded, coils were hooked up, car was started, spark was set non-inverted. I do not know why the coil failed (only one failed, not both), but it seems like it was MS related. The patch harness has something odd going on with it.

That sucks. I was sooo pissed when i fried my coil on the recommendation of many people telling me to use inverted spark because the NB is supposedly different.
Hope it works out for you guys.

Zabac 11-13-2007 10:00 AM

thank you Paul
mighty-thanks anyways, good looking out, someone else will need it im sure

Jerry should score a bunch of em and keep em on hand to sell to the idiots that don't follow the instructions when flashing the firmware.

Ben 11-13-2007 05:02 PM

Just for uber clarification, Dan's coil packs were both unplugged before his MS was flashed. Dan did it while Ben & I watched. They were nut plugged back in until after the firmware and base map were loaded.

What he said. I don't think the firmware download software would have allowed anything else ;)

im sure thats not what paul meant, he is the one sending me some coils...
i think he is referring to actuall idiots who do not unplug the coils even after Jerry's note says "did you really read that because you are about to blow your shit" lol...that was fucking funny
