    Your setting are most likely set to auto resize images. If you left click the image it will show full size. You can print picture also

    Hey, what do ya know, it works:). I know cars not computers. Thanks a lot for the info, it'll help 100%. Now, without spending a lot on aftermarket stuff, is this the way to go? Or should I consider a Pertronix set up?

    Pertronix is easy and affordable. No need to figure out where to put all that other stuff...
