Firing order (dist. cap & spark plug wiring) 850 1995

posted by  someone claiming to be m12builder on  Fri Dec 3 11:38 CST 2004 [RELATED]

All,

Rechecked wiring diagram with alternative manual. I had the configuration correct. Tried starting again...I cranked for about 10 seconds and she sounds like she wants to start, but then stalls out. Is it simply "flooded"? I double checked the gap on the plugs (0.028" per manual spec.). Also cleaned plugs of raw fuel and carbon deposits. The carbon deposits are suggestive that I am getting spark, otherwise I would not see the black fom the burned fuel.

I hate to do it, but if I can't get her started I might need to take her to a shop in a few days.

Phil
