Message:
Larry, I need your help! Just an hour ago,(5.22pm Pacific time), I installed the MSD 6a, Blaster coil SS and Tach adater per MSD installation instruction (so I thought). Start the truck and it did, then, turn it off after less than a minute. So then start clean things up. I wanted to start the truck again to make sure everything is okey. Truck would not start and could not figure out why.

Tried to back check what I did and everything look to be okey. Following are the installation I have done: First, the MSD 6a cable (violet and green wires) connectors on both ends plug into the Tach Adapter, easy. Second, MSD 6a ORANGE wire and BLACK wire into Blaster Coil SS, easy.
Third, MSD 6a BLACK and RED to Battery 12V, easy. FOURTH (NOT SURE), UNPLUG THE connector (with 2 wires Green with orange stripe and Black with grey stripe)from TRUCK BLASTER COIL. From Truck unplugged connector, I tapped Green w/orange stripe to MSD 6A RED wire AND TACH ADAPTER RED wire. Then the Tach Adater BLACK wire to Black w/gray stripe. Larry are these correct?

Disconnected everything and I have put everything back the way it was. The truck would not even start now. The battery have plenty of juice.

Larry, what do you think went wrong? and why won't the TRUCK START since I ALREADY put everything back. I appreciate you getting back to me!

check the 2 wires for signal and steady volts

Don't know what happend there

check the codes if you can after trying to start
and see if you can retrive any.

If you did wire wrong you may have taken out the
crank sensor or coil

I sent you an email
