Hard to hot start 390 w/MSD-6AL

By Bill - 03/18/2004 10:13:02 PM; IP 66.215.56.136

I just installed a MSD-6AL on my 69 390 GT. It runs great, but is hard to start when warmed up. B4 the MSD, I had a Pertronix w/no thermostat, then I added the MSD and a 190deg thermostat. Now it runs warmer (75% on gauge), but is VERY difficult to start when warm. Timing is around 6deg BTDC.

Any ideas?

Thanks, Bill
