Reply to "Ignition Problems"

The MSD will match your Ford distributor but as was mentioned, you'll need the MSD tach adapter for your stock tach to work, and you may want the reverse-current diode or the ignition key might not shut the car down. This is true for any MSD stuff. FYI, they have a website with all thir manuals posted. Its not unusual for a Ford brainbox to malfunction, but to only go partway out is a little rare. Lots of guys making this conversion carry a spare Ford box in the trunk for when, not if, they need it. Is your mechanic absolutely sure its not the vacuum advance or something similar?
