so tonight i got it running- turned out the condensor wire was broken right below the condensor out of sight- i bought some when i first got the car but didnt put em on. so i changed the points and condensor (the old points also had a little corrosion on em which im sure was an issue too- saving em for emergency!) replaced another two fuel lines (the pressure plastic line from the pump up cracked! so i replaced the whole line all the way to the pump). sprayed carb clean down the injectors and also on the ends of em. cranked it and it fired up! didnt want to run much but it ran. im pretty sure the injectors need cleaning badly- so i'll put some gumout in there and see if it gets better. now i just need to wait till the 2nd when my bronze pedal bushings come in to get the brakes working (well that's being hopeful). since the brake pedal sticks so much you have to pull it back up by hand....
at least its running! thank god!!!! thanks for all the help guys. never did figure out why the pump all of a sudden started working today- i removed the ground for the relay board and cleaned all of them so maybe that fixed it.... |
