So over the weekend I put my focus into getting the car started.
First, I checked and found I wasn't getting any spark while cranking but I was getting power at the coil. The cap is good and so is the rotor. I checked and wasn't getting anything out of the cap, but getting continuity through the wires. I'm figuring either the pertronix was bad or I burned it up?
I swapped out the Pertronix and put points and condensor back in then set the static timing. I cranked the engine and nothing. Checked and I had a spark at the plugs. Tried spraying some carb clearner in and the car instantly fired up then died. So there's a fuel issue. I had a leak before so I swapped the braided lines out for new ones from Tangerine Racing but had only done the lines in the engine compartment. I looked and didn't see a leak underneath. I thought that maybe they weren't leaking. I tried to think of what to do next when it dawned on me to check the tank; it was bone dry.
Put two gal in the tank and cranked and nothing. Looked underneath and there is gas everywhere! Those braided lines were crap. So now I have to replace the lower lines. I'm hoping that once all the lines are replaced it will start and run.
Thanks for letting me vent..
