Review on 🟑 ACCEL 140012 Enhanced EEC-IV Supercoil, Yellow by Tutan Dennard

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Pro- Pretty yellow color. Con- It doesn't work.

Looks and feels good but this reel won't work for you. Tried using it on a freshly rebuilt engine including initial run and break-in. Huge mistake. Couldn't figure out why it wasn't firing, the timing and fueling seemed correct and I saw a "spark" when I placed the tester on the spark plugs. The problem was that the spark wasn't hot enough because the boost coil had failed. I tried running it over and over again, wearing out the new cam and trying everything I could think of to get the engine to start. There were so many new parts that it took me two days before I even thought about replacing my bright, shiny new ignition coil, but when I did, the truck started right away. If you've ever glitched on a rebuild you know I've been sweating and the camera twitching that Accel reel for probably 5 years. Now I'm just waiting to see if I haven't wasted thousands of dollars and a month of my free time thanks to Accel, so as you probably guessed from this glowing review I won't be buying any parts from Accel (or its parent). more. Company, Holly, for that matter). It probably won't be too bad for you if that coil fails, but why bother? Save yourself the diagnostic headache.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • thin
