Hey guys,

I have a couple of issues with my baby. I am not getting spark past the coil. I can take my #1 plug and wire and plug it into the coil and get spark when she turns over. However, I do not have any spark to the plugs. Something is not working from the distributor to the plugs. My distributor and condenser is pretty new. Converted it when I went to carbs. All still looks new. My timing is fairly close. She was running fine and then all of sudden this the next day.

Also, I have an ignition that is acting weird. Sometimes she will turn right over. You then turn her back off and turn over again and there is a delay of about a half a second then she cranks. Then you do it again and she won't turn over all. You keep doing this and eventually she will try to crank again.

Is my ignition switch going bad? My wires to my solenoid and starter are connected well and in good shape. Is there a chance this may contribute to my spark issues?

Thanks in advance.
