if the tach works in the car with the key turned ,think the box could still be fryd, or is there a seperate circut for the coil inside the box?, im alone so its hard to check without the key turned.

 

What's the problem?

 

wont start now, im thinking when i boosted the car car today, i shorted it out

 

What did you short, exactly?

 

my batt is in the back , so when i need to boost the car i go off of the termial under the hood i put on the inner fender but i touched the bolt that i installed the terminal with and its grounded right so im thinkin it just cost me a new street fire box

 

Not likely unless you'd managed to create a short through the box itself.

 

just pulled off the #1 wire no spark, then coil wire and no f***** spark,

today mite be an expensive one, new box is 200+tax

 

the box is bolted to the cowl witch is why i think i fryd it. this time ill put a fuse in line before the + post

 

I have a question for ya.. i have a msd 6al box in my 84 transam did you have any problem with the tach input?
