Hi all, ive got a problem with my megajolt, its works fine but i cant start the car, while the car is cranking the edis coilpack does not get enuff voltage to spark properly! However if i satrt the car with the dizzy then swap the HT leads to Megajolt it works fine, im guessing becasue the voltage is not enuff with the car running?

Any ideas how to solve this? Cheers Chris

So have you measured the EDIS supply while cranking or is this what you suspect is happening?

The +ve supply to EDIS must be present when the ignition key is on Run (usually first position) and Start (usually second position). Maybe you have it in position 1 but not position 2?

The coil does get voltage just only about 10V :s this is not enough to make a spark to ignite the engine.
