What is this? External ICM? Pic included
http://s154.photobucket.com/albums/s275 ... nt=icm.jpg
What is that? when I leave my key in the 'on' position but the car not started, it gets so hot you cant touch it.
Sorry to start a new post but no one's posted in the previous posts in a while so I figured a new one would get this noticed faster!
I did a search on ICM's and all I got was threads on HEI mods.

i have no freakin clue! the guys where i work are heavy duty mechanics and they figure its an external ignition module. I'm not getting any spark and if that is an external ICM, the fact it's getting so hot could possibly be why im not getting spark?

The continuum transfunctioner is a very mysterious and powerful device and it's mystery is only exceeded by it's power.
