Hi Guy's,
I'm visiting L.A from UK on July 13th-19th. This will be my first time on the West Coast. Are there any meets taking place that week where I could meet some fellow Fourteeners? Or any general recommends of car stuff to see & do? Kindest Regards Darren C Thanks in advance |

So what if we burnt up a couple of PerTronix Electronic Injections and went back to points! Swapped the ignition harness back to OEM, coil, starter and cleaned up some grounds. It was all in a days wrenching! Two sets? That may be a first! Someone want to share what happened? Too many cooks in the kitchen? |

Burnt one set for sure, however the Ignitor II did not fit the distributor so its going back. The PerTronix that was originally in the car may or may not have been burnt, but the back-up set we put in fried for sure. @SocalAndy & @Darren C determined that we were getting 12V with the key on, but less than a Volt when cranking. Ignition switch was the problem although it had been previously tested and swapped. The mechanical part of the ignition lock cylinder is sticking as well so the bits in there are messed up. The entire thing needs to go. |
