Quick question for the Hive mind.
I have installed an MSD 8724 Rev limiter on my engine ( BPE 347 Carb ) and installed per the instructions with a good ground on the frame. The white trigger wire connected to the neg terminal on the coil with the green also connected to the negative on the coil. Finally the red is connected to the positive on the coil. I installed per the diagram on the MSD instructions. Now, the weird part. IT states it comes with a 6k,7k, and 8k module for the limiter but when I opened the box there was a 3k in there too. So I was like SWEET I will drop the 3k in there as sort of a governor while I go kart and test stuff. So, I fired it up but it will happily rev past 3k with no problems. Here is the diagram I used.

So even though the diagram shows the white and green wire directly tying into the negative terminal should I directly splice the white wire into the trigger wire coming off the points? OR is it pilot error with poor crimps. Any advice is appreciated. Picture for your time.
