Sounds like you have a dodgy earth. its the wire that goes from the negative terminal on the battery to the body and then to the gearbox mount.

Do your car and all the electronics on your car a huge favour and upgrade that. Just think what it's doing to your ecu.

Re: Mp9 coil dicktator and distributor setup connection
woah man. that negative wire should connect to the body too. It looks like it goes straight from the battery to the gearbox. It should connect to the body where that little brown wire connects in the first pic.
unless I'm not seeing something.

Re: Mp9 coil dicktator and distributor setup connection
This is the OEM layout (mounting points) I've just replaced with a thicker cable.
Battery -> Body -> Gearbox. It's good to have a cable runnin from the starter to the body, but you must ensure that there is adequate ground from the body back to the negative terminal.
