Megasquirt n spark - which coil?
novacaine - 15/4/09 at 02:08 PM

I've just finished building my Megasquirt V3 and now i need to sort out the ignition,

I was planning on running wasted spark with two coils as per This Page

What ignition coils should I use?
Im planning on putting the MS to use on a Zetec if that makes any difference...

as always, any help much appreciated

if you want to run wasted spark why dont you jsut run edis? then you can use a std coil pack

I will look into that, my first impressions was that an independant wasted spark system would be easier but i'll have a look into edis now

Thanks

Can you not put coil drivers on the megasquirt and use the standard zetec coil?

I must admit i dont know alot about it but im sure iv seen megasquirts with coil drivers to run them.

^^^^yes with a v3 i think your right, you can connect the standard zetec coil pack directly to megasquirt no need for edis, if its v2.2 you will require edis
