Well, guys, the saga just goes on and on. I replaced the electronic control module, the ballast resistor, the distributor cap, the shutter wheel, even the coil and added the power filter to keep this problem from ever happening again...have great fuel delivery, just no fire. The only thing that hasn't been replaced is the distributor housing...

I'm going to call the guys at the Accel group tomorrow and talk to them...I believe that the new control module was faulty and will ask them to replace it. When I put it on the car ran 3 blocks and shut down and had to be towed home. It has never fired up again despite replacing the coil, which the tech guy assured me would fix the problem. The new coil measures just 0.9 ohms resistance between the + and - posts...just as the tech guy said it should.

I'll keep you posted....just can't figure out what else could be wrong.
