Don't know a whole lot about your Accel Super Coil. The correct MSD coil
would be the Blaster SS. If the Accel Super Coil is that equivalent then it
should be okay. If not, you could have a problem. Did you check and make
sure you had the correct wires connected from the MSD 6A to the rest of your
wiring?

Subject: DML: MSD Problem
Hello all,
I'm hoping that someone out there will have a some
helpful suggestions for my MSD problem. Here's the
scenario:
I have a 98 RAM SS/T 5.9 Auto that I just tuned up. I
also wanted to add an MSD 6A to it at the same time.
I also used a Borg Warner Cap and Rotor and Autolite
3923 pulgs (gaped at .45}, an Accel Electronic
Supercoil, MSD 8.5mm wires, and Jacobs Boot
Protectors. I origially intended to install an MSD
Blaster 2, but I didn't realize that the tower
connector was different (my bad). So I went to
Autozone and found the hottest coil that had the right
connectors (an Accel Electronic Supercoil). Please
let me know if this is where I went wrong.
Everything seemed to install pretty easily except for
having to extend the wires from the MSD 6A over to
where the stock coil was mounted. I mounted the
Supercoil on the passenger side innerfender instead of
the stock position to move it away from the heat of
the manifold (soon to be header). I also used
anti-sease and dielectric grease.
Here's the problem. After all was installed, it
started and ran, but didn't seem to sound right.
After running for a couple min I was hoping the idle
would settle down, but it doesn't seem to want to. It
just starts to smooth out and then the RPMs jump about
50-75 causing the motor to jerk. It does this every
couple of seconds (start to smooth out, then jump).
I'm not noticing any back firing and I reved it up a
few times to about 4K. I didn't try to drive it yet,
because I'm sure somethings not quite right.
Anyone got any suggestions? Your help is very much
appreciated!
