Happy Thanksgiving!
I'm getting a cut out at higher RPMs but it pulls well. I currently run Hot Spark on the original dizzy and the fuel pressure is solid. I have oiled the distributor with some results but before I go buy a new one, I wondered if there is something else I might try. |

He has a pointless module installed inside the distributor, also this injection system doesn't use trigger points. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
Clark had a similar issue where his hot spark would start whacking out above 3000 rpm. I had him use a timing light attached to a random plug wire, and had him stare at this timing light as he manipulated the throttle cable. I had him repeat this test for every plug wire. I do believe his hotspark did fail due to a heak soak issues, either way it failed. If you repeat the test and see the same thing, your hotspark module has failed too. I've become a believer with this group buy 123 distributor. It is a investment, but I think it is money well spent vs buying another hotspark module. |
