I work for Holley/MSD, I own a 1st gen Raptor, and I put these coils in my truck 2k miles ago! Small world. How many miles are on your truck and how many miles/years did those coils last? Send me your email and I'll see what we can do
Wow that's awesome! Thanks so much for connecting with us! The truck has about 170,000 miles. Is mileage a factor in whether we should be using the coils or not? The coils were on the truck for about 6 months, just removed as you saw in the video, and in that time we put about 6000 miles on them. Of the 8 we installed, 4 failed. The truck broke down 3 times. Once in the winter storm that we showed in the video, a second time where it broke down, was towed to the shop and immediately diagnosed as a bad coil, and then a 3rd time where it was running bad and we were able to drive it to the shop and diagnosed it as 2 bad coils. At that point we'd hit 50% failure rate and we pulled them all out. Please know we love Holley and we've been fans of MSD (see Joel's videos where there's a big MSD sticker on his toolbox) for 30 years and this is the first time we've ever had such a bad experience. Our email address is in our about us. Excited to figure this out with you!
@MotorsandMischief I'll send you an email here shortly. Do you still have the bad coils handy? We may ask for them if we can confirm that manufacturing date/batch. I have a double stake in this, so happy to help!
Awesome! We have 7 of them still. The first one that went bad was unceremoniously filed in our round filing cabinet, with much gusto, and as such is not available. But the rest are!
@@MotorsandMischiefI have a 6.2L F150 Platinum with Maxtow . I bought a set of amazon ENA coils for $108. 4 failed. Lucky I saved the old ones. I used the boots and resistors from the ENA coils and all good now!.
for some reason Ford trucks REJECT AFTERMARKET parts. anything electrical you might as well spend the extra money and go OEM or regret it down the road...or ON SIDE of the road. glad to see you are honest and transparent when u make mistakes. very few YT creators will ADMIT they gave out bad advice.
We try to be transparent with you guys, especially when something doesn't work. To their credit, MSD has reached out to us and seems to want to help resolve the issue - we'll keep you all posted on how that turns out.
I am on my second set of MSD coils (they warrantied the first set) and both of them had coil(s) go bad. I gave up and just bought NGK (OEM). The first set I got maybe 5000 miles, the second set even less.
No kidding. Well I gotta say, I was surprised when they actually commented on our video. We are in talks now and I will let everyone know how it goes. Thanks for adding to our coil discussion!
I’m running MSD coils on my 3.5 f150…not quite the same part as yours but mine still are failing and beginning to misfire. I went back to read the reviews on them and I’m not the first with the issue. MSD coils seem to fail on several of their different versions
We're actually working with Holley to see if we can figure this out. They have our coils and we're waiting for feedback. Hopefully we'll have a helpful video for you guys soon on the results.
When one of the coils quit and the engine started running rough. Then it kept dropping coils as time went on. Holley contacted us and asked for the bad coils. They're going to let us know what they find. We'll keep you all posted.

I bought the MAS set of 8 coils for my 2012 Raptor two months ago. I’m down to just two left on the truck. Misfire issues.

The MSD I bought lasted almost 2 years and 25,000 miles and being the genius I am threw away the OEM

@@MotorsandMischief I have since bought new ford motorcraft coils and eliminated the misfire concern
So when what was the sign that alerted you that it was going bad?
When one of the coils quit and the engine started running rough. Then it kept dropping coils as time went on. Holley contacted us and asked for the bad coils. They're going to let us know what they find. We'll keep you all posted.
I’m having knock sensor problem does changing coils help
i know old comment, but no. its either the knock sensor itself is bad, or the knock sensor is ok and is just detecting a knock.
Nice!!!
Hey thanks Michael!!!
you gotta hit 80 at least to test fwy speed
We went for 88 but we're still here...
It's The Cheat!
It was the perfect remake! ruclips.net/video/GtQpThwWQtQ/видео.html&ab_channel=ebyam93
