Repeated Ignition Module Failure ???
Here's the deal - 92 full size pickup, 350, TBI. I'm on my 4th ignition module in about a year. This most recent one is only about a month old. What happens is, I get an intermittent no start condition. Strange thing is that the first few times it happens, I can crank and crank and crank, but if I just disconnect the module, and plug it back in, it starts right up. Eventually I get to the point where this no longer works, so I pop a new module in and I'm good to go. I know the unplugging and plugging in thing would seem like a bad connection, but I have checked all the wiring several time, even run a second ground just to be sure. Another ting is that the truck never dies once it is running and never misses a beat. It's just somethig with the initial startup.
Any ideas?

Yeah, I'll check that. Just seems wierd that I can unplug it and plug it back in and that gets it to start again. It's not a fluke either, it is repeatable probably 6 or 8 starts before it quits completely.

Re: Repeated Ignition Module Failure ???
How about do you run a second ground for the ignition module? I'm having some pains with mine and am looking for help.
