Hi all,
I got tired of playing around with the points/condenser etc and placed a crane cams electronic ignition (that i had used successfully on my other 99). The spark from the coil is very healthy now, so i tried to get it going with starter fluid, but for i couldn't get a putt.
Today, I put the timing light on number one spark plug and got a light, which i think is good. I'm still not getting a putt, but got one good backfire that blew out a hose under the throttle body and scared me to death. I think this is also progress, but I'm a little unsure where to go from here.
I haven't done the check of the injector points, but will do so asap. It may be a moot point with the crane cams item, not sure.
Thanks!
