MSD Blaster SS Coil

[Jookmasta]

so as some of you know, i just acquired one of these coils due to some store credit. nontheless, i read the directions and im kinda confused. It says i need to split two wires which would be routed i figure into the positive and negative slots on the msd coild. Then i figure the wire coming from the distributer would plug onto the node on the msd coil. So, which wires am i splicing and there were no hood clearance issues if mounted where the stock coil is correct? Pics would be great..............

BTW i did run a search

SOHC OR DOHC

[Jookmasta]

this is for a DOHC................but i did some more hunting and found this simplified answer:

Anyone care to confirm these instructions?

SOHC OR DOHC

I'd like to know how to install it on an sohc

[DammitBobby]

Yep that is what I did.

I should get this if I'm turbocharging shouldn't I?Also has me confused red/black to pos and green/black to neg.WTF there is 2 blacks or is the red&black wire and green&black wire?

[Jookmasta]

i plan on doing a writeup for it so stay tuned...........

The black wire with a red stripe goes to the positive side of the coil. The green wire with a black stripe goes to the negative side of the coil. These are the wires running to the stock coil. Its a two wire plug going into the front of the coil. Really hard to miss. You'll have to remove some of the black insulation going aroudn the two wires.

would this be the plug underneath the red ignition wire coming from the distributor or the plug thats in front of / near to the chip that has its own plug on that metal bracket?

this is a response that i got from an MSD tech guy on MSD's tech forums.

"We're not going to have a specific diagram but what we can tell you is to use the "points/amplifier" diagram in the 6 series instructions. Your coil has 2 wires. The green/black will go to the white wire on the MSD, and the black/red will go to the small red wire on the MSD. Black and orange from the MSD will now go to the coil."

I thought you were just installing a coil?

The plug is right next to yoru coil wire runnign to the dizzy. Just check all of the plugs for one with those two wires I told you earlier.

[Jookmasta]

i am only installing a coil. so this is the only underneath the dizzy wire not the one by that chip looking thing close to the fender? dont need an inline resistor right?

[nissanfanatic]

Ight.



You can see my wiring of the BTM. You can also see that I moved the ignitor chip down into the intake tray area.

That purple wire going to my coil is your Black w/ red stripe. Now that red wire running to my BTM will go right to your coil on the negative side. And on your car, it will be Green w/black stripe. I only have those colors because I had to extend from cutting and trying different setups.

But you can see that both the ignitor chip and the other lil harness are down by my air filter. You won't need to get any wires off the dizzy. Both wires are right there.

Sorry to bump up a really old thread but i didn't want to start a new one on the same topic.

I keep seeing everyone say that there are 2 wires. The big plug that plugs by my ignition coil has 3, Green, black, and white.

Am i lookin at the wrong plug?

[NateDogg]

Wrong plug. Look under the coil on the body sheetmetaland peel back the electrical tape. It's right there.

[Atown 240]

thanks, i did find it.

So all that needs to be connected is Red/black to positive and green/black to neg.?
