no-spark 760 update 700 1988

Thanks to all who posted advice regarding the no-spark condition with my 760 turbo. I was correct in my suspicions -- it was the Hall effect sensor in the distributor. In this case, the sensor's rivets had given way, allowing it to rattle around inside the distributor. A distributor swap from my currently-not-running 87 740 turbo fixed the problem.
