What do you think about hooking up the ground to the neg batt terminal instead of the chassis? The chassis is also hooked to the neg terminal in stock form.

 

As long as it's a good ground

 

Yeah, it's not Rocket Science, but it would be fairly easy to get it wrong. Take your time and triple check before you fire it up. It's not that the directions are cryptic, it's just takes awhile to figure out the verbiage and how they relate to the pictures. Ya really should go slow and make sure you understand it, even if you have to stare at it for ten minutes on one or two of the steps. I would triple check with any wiring job............but especially when it involves the ignition.

 

Wouldn't hooking it up wrong lead to a CEL being on? Wouldnt the CEL on tell you that something somewhere isnt correct? Or can you have it hooked up wrong with no CEL? I find that hard to believe.

 

nope.

beers

 

^ So you in theory can have it hooked up incorrectly and still have no CEL? Hmmm I best double check my work. I just hit 150 miles since instal though.

 

You don't get CEL's for a lot of things that they could do really easily.......not that there aren't enough already

Mostly they are for emissions related issues...Big Brother is watching and all

 

Hey....you got a washer fluid low light, and dummy oil gauge......WTF.......you want everything?

 

Keep an eye on your email guys, we will be filling orders today and expect to be caught up and stocking this item again as of next week!

The new facility is working out very well and production times are significantly decreased!

We appreciate your business and continued support guys, Scott

 

Great--welcome back Scott!

Thanks OD, setting up a new shop is a ton (several actually) of work.

 

Figure I would post here to mention that I've noticed a lot easier starting and in situations where my car use to flood. Since installing mazsport coils I haven't flooded once.

 

I changed from boxers to briefs. Also no issue with flooding.

 

Good to hear Varney!

 

lol... sad thing is most people wont get the humor/irony in this

 

haha nice. On another note, I've just hit 300 miles since my ignition instal and so far so good, not problems yet. (knock on wood)

 

10k miles on mine and no problems

 

That's pretty good. Are those the original mazsport coils and wires you installed? Or did you have to replace some things?

 

5000 miles on mine no problems at all, except I need some rear tires!

 

Feel like a baby in terms of mileage...............had mine in since March and only have about 3k on it.
No issues what-so-ever though!

 

I have nearly 40k miles and have never flooded and have stock coils and wires. car runs great and no problems with the engine at all since I bought new in 2006

 

Neither have I Cliff..on the flooding in about three years.......but now you have cursed yourself on the coils and wires. Seems to me from what I have read that around(notice I said around people) 45k or so is when people start seeing coils go. And............wires are cheap(for the most opart), so why not change those when coil time. I had cars where the wires did go bad, and I'm sure ours can too with all the heat involved in that bay.

 

true. I have thought about replacing them since they are relatively cheap. When I hit about 50k will do the whole tune up and all. I have changed the fluids religously, trans, brake, oil, antifreeze, rear diff. I try to keep it in good shape. Change all the fluids roughly every 25k miles to 30k except oil. I change it every 3 and change my plugs about every 10k or so. I keep it tip top.

 

Lill help here guys
