There is 12 volts going into the suppressor from the green/red wire coming from - coil.

To prevent interference on the radio.

Probably, as it's only a small capacitor, essentially.

This would not cause running problems.

The coil green/red goes to suppresspr then from there to the speed sensor module then the fuel relay safety module then to the rpm rev counter, as my rev counter not working either....?
And the fuel pump relay aka safety module senses ignition pulses, and cuts the fuel supply if the ignition pulses stop
So where does it pick up ignition pulses.... anyone??
