Easy. Your coil + to the THIN red wire. Your coil - to the THIN white wire. The MSD BOX THIN black to your coil - and then the MSD BOX ORANGE back to your coil +.
Either the timing or firing sequence is wrong. Go back and check everything.
HEI cap has coil mounted in it. they do make a blaster coil that fits in the cap. if your coil is the type of blaster that is shaped like a soda can but a bit smaller it WILL NOT work on an HEI
You can replace the coil with an MSD coil when using an MSD ignition, but you don't have to.Cure for what? Depends on the problems you were having before. MSD is generally more complicated than stock ignition. I mean it ads more steps between bat/alt and spark, so there is more to fail if anything fails; though they are generally reliable. But it depends on the initial problems. If the problem was low voltage to the ignition coil, slapping an MSD ignition box in between won't work either because it uses the same wire input (which would still be too low if that was never fixed).If the only problem was the coil or distributor, then yea swapping it for MSD coil and distributor will fix it, but you might as well just replace them with stock parts and forget about the MSD ignition box, unless you want the added performance. In that instance it wouldn't be a cure per say. I mean it will fix the problem, but not because it's MSD, but just because you replaced the faulty parts.http://www.nls.net/mp/volks/htm/spark.htmfor the MSD 6 series:http://www.msdignition.com/pdf/6%20series/6series.pdf
I have a B18b swap in a 91 civic hatchback. There is a msd blaster ss coil, AEM cold air intake,and a custom 4to1 header with skunk2 catback exhaust. I recently installed a BLOX fuel pressure gauge and it reads 25psi at idle and 36psi at full throttle.
