So, I believe that I've found the reason that my car kept eating modules. The piece inside the distributor (which was a cheap, parts store replacement apparently) that the module plugs into is completely melted. The plastic is soft and sticky. Never seen that happen before. A buddy brought me a good OEM distributor. I slapped a new module on it (with heat sink paste!) and it runs better than ever!

What year is your car?

Go to the subforum for the year of your car.

If you have a specific technical question, go to the tech section for your year.

If you want to know the opinion of fellow members, go to the general talk section of your year.

Look for the tab saying,"Post New Thread" in the upper right corner, hit it and ask your question.
