Coils make popping noise when turning on
Hello,
so after engine machine work, forged internals, and megasquirt 2 assembly I started my car last night! It was just for a second but I have a question for you guys. Almost every time I turn my key to the on position I get a loud audible popping noise from the coils. Do you guys have any idea? The car runs so I wouldn't think there would be a setting or wiring issue but I'm not sure. Its a 1997 1.8 (1.9 technically) Thank you!

Gotcha. I’m having a similar issues with my flowforce coils. Ms3. Sometimes I turn the key on one coil will hum and get very hot. Other times nothing.
Haven’t had time (or a motor) to diagnose.
I entered the new info for the coils onto tunerstudio but hard (for me) to tell if the root cause is the same?

look up the improved spark circuit here or somewhere. It uses a TC4427 or something like that (I don't store electronic component names in my head that well).
It's an old *** problem that's been fixed 20 times.
EDIT:
Holy **** I can't believe I remembered that name. Many times I go to the garage and as I'm opening the door I already forgot why I was going there.
