Not Ranked
Roscoe - Out of Service
Well, yesterday I rolled the car out of the garage and it would not fire (Hi Bill S.) A few minutes later it fired fine. Went on some errands where I had to turn it off and restart at least 4 times, no problem. Went to the in-laws to help out with something and the car sat a few hours. It would not start again. Car cranks fine but no spark. Fuel feed is fine also.
I found that I was getting no spark out of the coil. I have a MSD digital 6 plus box with blaster hi vibration coil and msd pro billet dist. I found a blaster 2 coil locally (he ripped me off) but that did not work either.
Towed it to friends garage (thanks Bill K) and today went through the msd troubleshooting instructions. No spark at the coil, even when jumping the dist wires, as instructed. We DO have power from the ignition to the box (red wire). Tried everything but I think there is a short in the box as no spark (power) is getting to the coil.
Distributor is fine, I assume, cause we are not even getting spark to the dist. Tried new coil wire also.
So I'll have to call tuesday to msd tech and see what they say. Hopefully I can send the box back for repair and not have to buy a competely new box.
Life sucks,
Roscoe
