great site this is my first post
i tried to find the answer to my problem but not sure about it
i get no spark at all from it disconnected the black/yellow kill wire no change
im using a dvm not a dva so i'm just guessing at tracking it down
should i get voltage from the red or blue wires only while cranking at the switch box?
also i get a signal from the trigger to each coil
when i connect the meter to ground and the other side to the plug wire
i get nothing while cranking but get a breif voltage surge when i let go of the key also did this from the red and the blue wires from stator same thing nothing while cranking the brief surge when i let go of the key
any help would be much appreciated.. ordered manual havent got it yet
