Installation is straightforward:
Installation:
* Connect Coil 1,2,3 and 4 to the drive signals to each coil packs as necessary.  
* Connect Coil 1,2,3 and 4 to the drive signals to each coil packs as necessary.  
** We recommend 24 gauge wire, but wire gauge is not critical- so long as it fits the module.
* Connect the tach output to the input of your tachometer.
* Connect the tach output to the input of your tachometer.
* Wrap the board with electrical tape or shrink tubing- the board is small enough to integrate into your wire harness / bundle.
* Seal the module with shrink tubing or electrical tape- the board is small enough to integrate into your wire harness / bundle.
