on the inside inner engine compartment liner, on the drivers side, about mid way between the engine sheetmetal and upper liner is a ground lug, somewhere behind my CIS fuel filter. John Cramer already stated where it's at. That has to be clean always. Then I ran a 12ga wire from that to the CD box mounting bolt in direct contact with the box. The CD ground, inside the wire plug, should be in concert with the box case.
and sometimes the tach can cause problems.. it's unusual, but I read that it can happen. If I have a crazy CD problem I unplug the tach connector inside the harness that runs along the drivers side to the engine elec pannel.. easy to find because it's a 2 into 1 connector and the tach trigger wire is colored the routine color, I forgot. You'll have to dig for it in the harness.
you should make sure your CD plug wire and box connectors are very clean and making good contact.
You may want to run new wires from the dizzy to the CD for a temporary confirmation of the connections. I don't know much about the SC dizzy CD trigger internals, or how to confirm its operation.
In my experience I have found that the CD is Very sensitive to wiring and a weak coil, that damages the CD permanently ........Ron
