Hey guys,
I installed my MSD Blaster 2 coil the other day, and now I'm having a couple issues that I think are related to it. First, when the engine is idling, and i turn on the headlights, sometimes the RPM drops like 50RPM, just enough to be able to hear a difference. This only happens sometimes, and isn't very consistent. The second thing is that when I go from park to reverse, if I have my lights on, the headlights as well as the lights on the gauge dim a little bit, not a whole lot, but noticeable. I wonder if maybe I did a crappy job of wiring it or something. On one of the terminals of the coil, I misplaced the little washer that's supposed to go on the terminal before the wires, and then the nut goes down on top of that. My friend told me it'll still work but might not make as good a connection. It does work, and I plan on getting another washer soon, but could just not having that washer be causing these problems?
