Yea i've checked the coils every which way and testing just the outputs on the emu, looks to me maybe someone fried the emu by doing just that and reversing the wires.

I have found the prolebm, I pulled the emu apart, 4 of the rectifiers on the board that are wired to each of the ignition coils are busted, they all look over heated, 1 is cracked.

I have ordered some new ones and see if it will fix the problem, hopefully nothing else is damaged on the board.

Kinda wished i didn't pull the loom apart now :( haha
