    How to - MSD theft deterrent???

    you disconnect the wires from the back of it and stick a wire from the msd and a wire to ground on there... heh. do you really use the cigarette lighter? if you really needed a 12v power source in the car you could always wire in a 2nd one somewhere...

    How to - MSD theft deterrent???

    if you ran the positive wire from your msd thru it, it would get hot... ground wires dont get hot because they are the neutral conductor... think about it... your whole car is a ground... why doesnt it get hot and melt? =) basically the positive wire goes to the "load", the energy is used...

    If belt is too big, will it effect my charging system???

    yes it will have an effect... think of it like gears on a bike, as you take certain gears out, the chain slows down... get a smaller alternator pulley or a smaller crank pulley to speed up the belt... or just upgrade toa 3G alternator and be done with it.

    msd --- ground wire ---- wire --- cigarette lighter --- wire --- ground pretty simple. once the lighter is pushed down its pretty hard to pull out... not ot mention if yers is worn out (stop smoking, DUH!) you can get replacements at autozone for like $5 and they're almost impossible...

    Vibration In drivetrain

    if you've never replaced the u-joints... start there. it'll cost about $12 a piece and you simply remove the driveshaft (watch out for tranny fluid, hehe)remove the clips, punch out the old ones and punch in the new ones and stick in the new clips... I replaced mine and it feels like a whole...

    Help with vacuum..

    you dont need a code scanner. locate the EEC-IV service harness located on your drivers side shock tower... there will be two plugs... one is just a single wire plug and the other has about 6 plugs in it, like two on top and foud along the bottom. take a small wire and connect the single plug...

    How to - MSD theft deterrent???

    that right there sounds like you were going to put a switch in line with the wires from the MSD to the coil... which would be a bad idea. later on in the thread you changed your story with the violet wire...

    Installing gears..

    you're going to have to find a shop that is able to install gears... they're relatively simple but they do require that you have 2 specialized gauges... one for setting the correct pinion depth and one for getting the correct drag... while you're at it you should get a gear installation kit...

    How to - MSD theft deterrent???

    dont run your coil wires to a switch... theres waaay too much current running thru those for a switch. I think a cool idea is to run the ground wire thru the cigarette lighter... when its pushed in, the circuit is complete and the car runs... when the lighter is removed the car wont start...
