I've got a 2.3L in my 99 Ranger with a distributor using duraspark. Thursday an hour and a 1/2 from home and 10 miles off the beaten path the duraspark original motocraft box died(Been working fine for 3 months now). I got a ride to Advance bought a new made in china box I also got a new coil just in case (Newer style 86 Ranger coil) put them on the truck and it ran 1.5 miles and the box died again. Trailered her home and thought it might be because I'm using the original 3.0L V6 coil pack power wire (12Volt)to power the system so I bought a 4 pin Gm HEI ignition module put it in I drove it about 45 miles today and it died when i got home. Every time it fries is at an idle. First 2 times I was idling down a 2 track, 3rd time I was idling at the mail box. Anyone have any idea why it has started fring boxes? I am feeding a tack signal into the 3.0L tack off the negative side of the coil, so that and the power feed are the only 2 wires from the 99 everything else is duraspark, or GM HEI)
