Gauge Cluster and car not starting!

Ok ive had my gauge cluster out for a few days cause i am doing the LED light conversion. I had to replace my ignition coil, so i put it in and hooked up my msd multispark box. I tried starting my car (without gauge cluster) and it would not start. Just cranked and cranked but no fire. So i rehooked up the test ignition coil and tried starting it but still nothing. Could this be because of the gauge cluster being out? i hope it is cuz i dont want to put anymore money into this car.

Not if you removed it cleanly and didn’t cause a short.

Pay particular attention to the wire for the tach, if that touches ground it can cause no spark.


Happy Racing!

When you see fog lights on in good weather beware. Low performance driver ahead.

How bout those nitwits too scared to drive without headlights in the daytime, and the nitwits that need headlights for a little rain
