...get me a close up pick of the distributor, and the wire harness for the Crank Angle Sensor? Mine died again, and someone I know has a 3rd gen distributor available, but I need to see what is different.

Many thanks,

S

 

I'll go try to snag a pic of antons tonight, I gotta steal an extension from him anyway since mine ran off somewhere

 

Do VGs really have a crank angle sensor? I thought the dist was gear driven?

 

it is gear driven
the "CSPS" is inside the dizzy

the injectors still need to know when to fire

only leaving it up for a day though

 

Yup they do under the distributor. The actually do 3 jobs, the tach runs off of it, injectors pulse use it, and it provides the ignition pulse/signal for the igntion coil.

Thanks Shawn!

did you get what you needed? it was dark and I couldnt see shiet, so I just started snapping away

 

so that's probably why you need the tach adapter when using the msd ignition unit. they're running everything off the same system... that's what msd was trying to say in their manual and now i understand why.
