hotrodbanshee Posted February 7, 2009 Report Posted February 7, 2009 Fixing to install a new vapor on the shee. When hooking up the tach to the coil do I hook the red wire into the orange or black wire coming out of the coil? As far as the black wire coming out of the vapor I am going to ground it to the frame, or am I better off wrapping the red wire around the sparkplug wire? Also I think I am going to use a 9volt energizer battery to power the unit. Quote

vulvafan537240 Posted February 8, 2009 Report Posted February 8, 2009 i powered mine from the hot wire going to the headlight switch. works fine. i have heard of some people having problems with the unit cutting off with high rpms when running off the stator. most of them switched to the br8es plugs and it solved the prob tho. i run b8es's with no probs tho.

hotrodbanshee Posted February 8, 2009 Author Report Posted February 8, 2009 I always run the BR8ES plugs. I read some of the other post on here and they were using 9volt battery's to power the vapor. Quote
