I believe it would... IIRC that's what MoonEggs' and a few other people's setups do. If you're describing what I think you are, it would look better aesthetically too.

I think the filter thing may have to do with what section you're posting in as well... I think sometimes mine aren't filtered either.

sorry to sound noob, ive seen it everywhere just never asked. whats IIRC? lol. and well i dont see why it wouldnt since the power tower would be doing the same thing?.

[WhiteFinish]

if i recall correctly

I also use a ZE cap (including a distributor)
Don't know if you can use a ze cap on a k8 rotor though.

ZE caps only fit ZE disties and ZE disties only take ZE caps.

ohhh okaay. well hmm. i got a ze disty still. guess ill give both a try and see what happens. found a write up on how to wire up the 4 plug.

[cWs306]

lol well ended up finding a blaster2 coil and a msd wire for 30 bucks. kijiji is amazing haha. just wondering tho. do i need a power tower for disty to? or how will this wire hook up to my disty? lol. because it doesnt just plug on haha.

[cWs306]

im trying to find terminals because i got a msd super conductor wire but its for a old school sbc type disty. but they are like near impossible to find. so im wondering what wire do you guys use for your blaster coil and disty without a power tower. or do i absolutely need a power tower?

[cWs306]

FIXED IT! WOOOO! thanks for all the help everyone! went with the msd blaster 2 coil, gm 4prong module and the klze disty/7 plug cap.

BUT

I ran into an issue while driving it home(5blocks) this is what i know that could cause it, but not all i think. the timing is out(forgot the timing light. doing it tomorrow) and the gas is baaad. like 4 months of sitting bad in crap weather(+5 to -30c) so heres the issue, when i sorta try and giver, it bogs out and does a nice face plant. (probably the timing right?) and also this is the one idunno about. the rpm gauge is bouncing erratically and just doin it own thing, literally. i got the clutch in should be at 800rpms(can hear the motors revs) n it just hops around, jumps up to about 2k down to 1300 back up. but it wasnt doing this while it was running in the garage and i was revving it a little. sorry for the speach, i like to be detailed.

[mikeinaus]

when you say faceplant im guessing the car will be pulling then all of a sudden crap down to idle and make the car buck like crazy? my old car did that when i first bought it. i figured it had something to do with the vaf but the problem fixed itself after a few tanks of gas and driving the piss out of it. you could try that method or try drain/clean/refill the tank.

[wagZE]

Are you running COPPER CORE spark plugs? Preferably NGK? If you run spark plugs that aren't copper core your car will hate you & do what you are describing. Ask anybody who has been here for a while & tried different plugs.

[cWs306]

yah like bogg out have 0 power lol. and hmmm, i was thinking it could just be bad fuel. cause it is oollddddd. and i got an extra vaf, maybe ill try it n see what happens. and im running spark plugs that my cousin ran in his mx-3 klze. there ngk plugs for a 4 cylinder probe. he never had any issues for the 5 years he ran his car.



EDIT: Where is the drain spout on the tank? like back left corner? opposite of the exhaust?

[Ryan]

dead centre.

Does the car idle, but hate all throttle? If so, check VAF.

[cWs306]

ohhh okay, thats easy then. any tricks to draining the tank? yes it idles perfect at 800rpms but hates it when i push on her. and okay i got an extra je50 one. ill go chuck it on. i need the timing set before i go rippin. dont wanna damage nothing.

[Daninski]

Did you install the 1000ohm resistor for your tach to work properly?

[cWs306]

yes sir. and its in the right direction too. its doing the same thing my speedo did right before it quit workin lol.
