MSD 6al question

I bought a MSD ignition system for my 94 ford f-150 its pretty stright forward with how you have to wire it up. But the 1 question i have is one of the wires has to go to the igntion so when you turn the key on it tells the system to start pulling power well i dont know wich one of my wires is that igntion wire.. Should i go buy a tester and turn the key and go threw every wire till i find it or what because theres a crap load of wires.

any information would be great

thanks

MSD 6al question

Hi, one idea is to use a test light at the fuse box. Find one that doesn't have power until the ign is on. Tap into it for the MSD.

MSD 6al question

I tapped the fuse box for my CB. Since i dont have power windows that fuse spot was open and just crammed the wire in there. I'm getting a 6AL sometime soon so I guess thats what I'll have to do for it too. Let us know how it turns out.
