[DML] Re: Engine misfiring-Updated-

["David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

It just might be the MSD coil. The system is supposed to work with a
Bosch coil. If you switch coils the MSD may not have the same
operating charactoristics and is getting "oversaturated". Try putting
the origional, Bosch coil back and see what happens. Another
possability is that with the "hotter" MSD coil some of the parts can't
take the higher voltage and are breaking down, like the cap and rotor.
