An MSD works by supplying multiple sparks to a cylinder. Theoretically, by providing more than one spark, there is a greater chance for complete combustion of the air/fuel mixture in the cylinder.































However, unless there have been some fairly extensive modifications made to the vehicle, the average driver will not see a noticeable improvement in performance.
