Yeah, you'll be able to hook up just the coil for now... you actually disconnect the +/- from the ignitor (just remove the cap and they're right there) and run a wire to your coil, then when you put your MSD cap on, either drill a hole for the wires to feed thru, or remove the rubber grommet on the top like I did.
Note the picture that I've included, it's got the coil that MSD reccomends for hondas running the 6A ignition (it's resting on my intake manifold) : [url]http://biodeo.octlet.net/crxmeet3-11.jpg [/url] http://biodeo.octlet.net/crxmeet3-11.jpg One last point: That is NOT how it's sitting in my CRX, I was still working when the pic was snapped =) -M >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >To: "Mark Humphreys" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >CC: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: Re: CRX: msd 6a >Date: Fri, 31 May 2002 13:42:50 US/Eastern > >Hmmm, interesting.
