On a 94 prelude vtec.

I am trying to install the damn msd. I need help with two wires. The red and the white wires that are comming from the MSD. Where the hell do they go? I got four wires inside the dizzy that are going to the ignitor. One is yellow with a green stripe. One solid green and one solid blue and one black/yellow stripe. On the plug where i disconnected the external coil, there are 3 wires. One is yellow. Another black/yellow stripe and a blue one. Can someone help me where to connect these two wires (red and white).

They actually do it on a Civic, but it's pretty good.

civic and prelude has different color wires.

 

It wont hurt anything if you hook it up wrong, just don't leave it on long, If I remember right, I have the Greens together and the blue and blacks together. Try and crank it, if it doesn't or it starts running like ****.. shut it off and retry the wiring. Just try the way I said first.. but it's been a while.

 

on my 98 prelude i hooked up the black/yellow and the yellow to the red wire and the blue to the white..as for the ignitor wires i didn't hook them up to anything...

Proceed with caution..

 

Ok since I just had mine installed last week I still have the manual. The yellow and black as well as the yellow (original coil +) connect to the red. The blue one (origninal coil -) connects to the white. These are the wires from the plug of the original coil. Assuming you are keeping the factory coil the orange goes back to the yellow/ black and yellow and the black goes to the blue. Hope that helps
