Hmmmm... Ok, ok, I'm sold on this gizmo. You have the off-road model
right?
Do I have to get anything else with it or is it just the box alone?
Thanks.
Tom

Well after Tom requested a second test, to verify the MPG gains I
experienced with the MSD 6-Offroad Ignition, I did a second test.
Test Mule: 1993 Dodge Dakota Sport 4x4 Regular Cab; 3.9L V6 with 3.55 gears;
126,500 miles
Freshly installed Borg Warner Select Brass Cap, Borg Warner Select Rotor, a
Autolite Copper plugs. When conducting part of the test with the MSD
Ignition unhooked, the plugs were gapped at .040; with the MSD Ignition
hooked up, the plugs were gapped at .050
*FIRST TEST:
-With MSD
Miles: 255.65
Gallons: 14.873
MPG: 17.188
-Without MSD
Miles: 237.15
Gallons: 15.855
MPG: 14.957
*SECOND TEST:
-With MSD
Miles: 266.1
Gallons: 16.93
MPG: 15.717
-Without MSD
Miles: 242.9
Gallons: 16.677
MPG: 14.571
On this second test, for both portions, I did tow a boat/trailer(3,500
pounds) for about 75 miles; so the numbers arent as high as the first test.
But they still showed an increase with the MSD Ignition hooked up. I wanted
to supply a link to my original post, but I cannot open the DML Archives.
