I'd be happy to help, but the easiest and best help by far is to call 
MSD's support number and unless you get the new guy with the accent, 
you'll get help quickly and efficiently. You don't need the gold box. If 
calling MSD doesn't, for some reason appeal to you, say so and I'll go 
dig up my schematic and see if I can help. Memory won't help in this 
case, because I replaced a Prestolite system including the distributor.
