I don't mind jokes in good humor, it's when they get nasty I don't appreciate them. One of the reasons I like this site is that the people and board moderators know when to put restraints on teasing and "joking".i was gonna make a joke, but then saw ur name "grandpa jeepr" and decided against it
anyways, i have no idea what would blow modules like that, if it were me though id do what ur mechanic friend tells you to do,
Good question. When I put in the HEI we used only the switched wire going to the original ignition module to fire the new unit. It ran for a year before it started acting up. I think the replacement modules were all too weak to work in the 30,000 volts unit. Put in a high end one just to see if it holds. Been debating switching to an MSD-6 and an old points system.I am not that familiar with the HEI system so I have a question I thought the HEI was a full ignition system some what like the MSD I installed on my 4.2 years ago. I removed the module from the system as the MSD now did that job. Is it possible the systems are fighting each other????
This is also what I thought. I thought the system eliminated everything.I am not that familiar with the HEI system so I have a question I thought the HEI was a full ignition system some what like the MSD I installed on my 4.2 years ago.

Wish it was that simple. I live in a small town in the mountains of Arizona where some of the houses come with custom one or two holers. Quite a few places have no running water and the closest community well is way down the road. I have tried driving the jeep the fifty miles in either direction to get to a shop with any advanced equipment only to breakdown just outside of town.if you havn't done the switch over already try running a redundent ground. and check the wiring for te module from the control and look at the waveform on a scope if you can. if its blowing the modules like that I would be suspectious about the ground and the wiring
