Duraspark module
I have an 85 f150 with a 300 slightly modified, which I just did a duraspark II conversion on I ordered all new parts, but I bought a module off rock auto and from what I am reading now I think I jumped the gun. The gel lining is black not blue. Will this module work? Also I have a wiring diagram I found online and am planning to get a plymouth resistor(msd blaster 2 coil), plugs and some wires to make the wiring harness today. What gauge wire should I need?

I resume you are going from EEC to DSII
Shouldn't that 85 already have the resistance wire in the harness coming from the ignition switch ?
It should be just like the older trucks.

Alright, those diagrams helped alot, I have all the wiring complete besides wiring to the ignition switch and the positive on the coil, I can't figue out which wiring goes where. I figure that on of them should only have a voltage reading when it is on start and the other should have one on start and run, does this make sense?
