Help - I bought a used Plasma Booster (PB8302600S) for my 2002 Mustang GT, but it didn't come with instructions. I know that each wire connects to each coil driver and there is a wire that is to be grounded, but I'm unsure how to identify each wire - does it matter which wire goes to which coil?

Anyone have the instructions they could email me? cburgess4@tampabay.rr.com



Thanks!

Chris

Yes it matters which side of the coil you T into. You should T into the coil ground wire. It should be the one that is a different color on every coil. The plasma booster works by continuing to pulse the ground circuit on the coil after the initial firing by your ECU if I remember right.

Go to this site and see if you can find what you need. They have repair manuals online and also wiring diagrams.

Step 1: go to http://www.bedlib.org/ebsco.html
Step 2: click on the ARRC logo near the top
Step 3: under "user id" type "user" and under "password" type "password"
Step 4: scroll to the bottom, and press the AARC logo again

Sorry, after re-reading my post, maybe there is confusion. I know the leads coming out of the PB box go to each of the coil ground (or driver) wire..that I know and understand and can identify.
What I don't know is if each lead coming out of the PB box is supposed to go to a particuliar cylinder or does it matter? Out of the PB, they are divided into 2 groups of 4 wires, and of these 4 wire groups, there are 2 short, 1 med, and one long...figuring that is done to facilitate reaching each cylinder if you mount it like on the firewall...but again, and maybe I'm worried about nothing, but are these wires (from the PB) cylinder specific...?

Thanks!

I actually got an email answer from Okada Products (the folks that now own the Plasma Booster) - the wires can go to any cylinder, they are not cylinder specific.
