First of I would check the ground wiring. I would check all wiring. Those things are solid state so it must be external of the unit. try that first.

yup as supernova has stated the edelbrock progressive is very touchy to grounding.
hey scott run a deicated ground from the battery to a ground strip and run anything electronic off that ground strip. if you use the frame you will get lots of electical noise through the frame which plays havic on electronics
hope this helps.
