I just had a strange notion and don't know if it would make a difference or not. I remember having my distributor rotor turned 180 degrees out when I first rebuilt mine and it was hard to time.
Have you tried swapping the injector connector plugs? I'm not sure if it would run that way, but I do know that the trigger points switches two groups of two so potentially the plugs could be swapped. I don't agree about the Throttle Position Sensor. The car will actually run without one. I would look at the trigger points and probably clean the contacts off with crocus cloth or some fine sandpaper or a points file. The trigger points are in a low current circuit and should last a very long time and should not pit like the ignition points do. Just my random thoughts..... |
