          Just take the box out and run OEM stuff. Unless you have some secret need for having it.

          PM me for:
          Sandblasting(I use glass beads)
          Diesel repairs or performance products.

            OEM Ignition FTW. unless you are running 500+ whp, you will be fine with stock ignition, way less hassle to deal with.

              Look for the 80 amp fuse in your fuse box. Its a black one with a clear top. I'll lay odds you popped that one. It takes a 10mm wrench socket to remove it. Ask me how I know. Let me know if this helps.

                The cars running fine now, eggs and goodnbuzzd check all the fuses and they were all good. They pulled to ecu fuse and put it back and it started, it coughed a bit but it started. The jolt must have made the the ecu hiccup.

                        A new coil is a lot cheaper than a full MSD set up that does nothing for you, and a lot more reliable.
