Title: Angry email to msd!!
Post by: aquaholic72 on July 18, 2016, 03:19:51 AM
 Please someone tell me why if you buy an msd ignition box, and an msd distributor why aren't the wires color coded the same from the box to the distributor? ?? Box has a plug, distributor don't ,,, wires don't match!! Boat ran like shit today till I relized they were crossed!!! Fuck me for thinking purple went to purplish! !! Lmfao... tighten your game up MSD !!

The only time I have ever seen an issue is if you're using a ready to run distributor with a box. Otherwise plug and play.

The reason is so the ready to run uses as conventional as possible wire colors.

My Pro Billet and 6AL is completely idiot proof.

When you start mix and matching is when you get into trouble.

Mallory is much worse than MSD in my opinion.

They're labeled pretty well.

They even have a live chat board for technical assistance.

If you're buying used stuff and trying to get it to work without downloading the proper paperwork,  how is that on MSD?

Just throwing that out there.

I figured it out pretty quickly, it's an msd 6al and a locked out pro billet distributor. . Green n purple out of the box, purple and orange out of the distributor. .. I just figured purple went to purple and I was wrong!! LolO0
