OK guys I've got at least two things going on. I finally got a good switch (fourth times a charm), but I'm still not starting.
1. I get power going into the relay board, but not coming out. What happens to the juice once it enters the board? I cleaned up the pins and connectors, but I still do not get power out consistantly. 2. When I do get power out the starter turns like a champ, but I am not getting spark all the time. This is a new trick. Is this associated with number 1, or a whole new problem. Thanks |

Burned up as in smoke pouring out of the distibutor.
Refresh my memory. Is it bad to leave the switch in the run position or the start position? If its in the run position then I probably killed it when I was troubleshooting my headlights. That would explain why I wasn't getting spark. I just killed it worse now. Good thing I kept the points. |
