MSD Digital 6AL pn 6425
I originally posted this thread in the Engine Building/Ignition page, but didn't get any response. I'm hoping someone that knows about this issue will see it here. I replaced my old 6AL pn 6420. When I started up the Cobra after the winter this year, it was running real rough, decreased power, but not breaking up. Wouldn't want to take it out on the road. Tapped on the MSD box a few times and then it was running just fine. I replaced the box with a new Digital 6AL and now my Lucas ammeter fluctuates between 0 and +25A when the motor revs up. It's stable at idle. I'm guessing the new box is messing with the voltage regulator. A buddy said it's a known issue, but I couldn't find anything googling the issue. I called MSD and the guy said that the Digital 6AL draws a lot of power, live with it.
