        What the!!!!




        no MSD coil..they have to order it!
        So I buy the 20 dollar coil. The module cost 70 bucks. Holy shanizle!!
        They checked the coil and he says low on one side and high on the other side. Okay, it's off so I'll buy it knowing the car has a new coil and module.
        Get home and find out the old coil is riveted in the bracket and I need a 3/16 drill bit to drill out the rivets.
        What the!!
        No drill bit that size so now I have to go buy a drill bit. On second thought, I'll just bring it to work tomorrow and have the maint. guys do it.

        Then the guy at Auto Zone says it could be a # of sensors that's stopping it from fireing.

        If this doesn't work, the car gets towed to the shop.
        I have been told I should have bought a stang instead!! Now I'm starting to think twice about this purchase. And it wasn't cheap

          You should have just ordered the MSD coil - would have been better off.

              You will be much happier when your car is running again. The only time I have problems with mustangs is when they have a blower on them. When I installed my MSD coil I think I used a dremel to separate the old coil?

                      Do you have a repair manual? Could be the Opti-Spark or an ignition coil or module too. See if there are any codes in the ECM.
