Properly the Igniter, in the Dizzy. It will not throw a code and it will prevent a spark to go to the spark plug. It pretty common for it to happen once or twice in a cars lifespan.

ok try this. went back to mess with my vic and the damn thing started with no problem, so i was like kewl, but im sitll getting a 16 on the ecu. my friend steve gave me another ecu and the previously mentioned mpfi pgmfi intake mainifold and throttle body. i swapped ecus for the hell of it and i still get keep getting a 16 and im really pissed off now. but the wierd thing is it still runs every now and then just not when i want it to. will the mpfi pgmfi work without rewiring or will i have to get another set of injectors for close to 200. help me out ppl. laterx

pgmfi is the DX? then NO it will not work... DX = 2 injectors Si/hf = 4 (i believe thats correct)
