Thanks for your concern Geoff. Not going yet.

I've added a cylinder and am up to 3 now. #4 is cold. I should get some time this afternoon.

This is where I'm at now. System voltage is 13.86 Volts. The plug has a spark outside of the hole, but not strong. It does arc. I think the wire boot is letting the spark jump to the head. There is power to the injector with each pulse. So, I'll get some new wires, cause these are junkyard jobs, new plugs and I'll swap out the injector if needed. If that doesn't work I'll check the valves.

Ive got a bad transistor switching the fuel pump so it stays on all the time. i'll have to replace that but it doesn't affect the dead hole.

Needless to say I'm getting really tired of this.

Shoot, I wanted to come down to see it this weekend. Maybe I will do that and bring the "magic touch" like last time with me.

I couldn't believe that when I read it Kevin. Is that cheapass or what? I am looking at 10-12 tomorrow.

dave does his part to save the environment. you know, keeping all those old plug wires out of the landfills.
