Put the two Trigger wires [blk and wht] on the opposite side of the coil from the O.E. white wire [switched 12v] and Go... till ya get where you can change it... not thousands of miles preferably..
I thought the Hy-4 was either single or dual Fire...Selectable??
LMK if this don't work... but... triggers is triggers, IMO

Red is power in to module, terminated at the + of the coil.
Black from the module is trigger for the coil.
Brown to tach,
Green to VOES.
Tape off white wire

Mode Sel Dial on 4 (or 5)
All other dials set at 5

Hope this helps

Should work

If I remember right...... that should have selectable switches for kickstart and single fire.

ETA..... replace ASAP, they have a known problem of cutting out in the heat.
