MSD Ignition 8610 ignition crank trigger kit for the 1988-1995 Chevrolet C1500 V8 5.0L or 5.7L and other vehicles triggers the ignition from four magnets in an aluminum wheel. The design avoids the false triggering that bolts, debris or vibration can cause on a stud-type wheel with a magnetic pickup.
Erratic timing, a misfire or a no-start can mean the crank trigger is worn, though the ignition box or the pickup wiring can be behind the same signs, so find the cause before replacing the kit.
The same crank trigger kit fits the 1988-1995 Chevrolet K1500 V8 5.0L or 5.7L and the 1995 Chevrolet Tahoe V8 5.7L. Each engine takes one kit.
