Hey thanks, for the advice. Zero-milling, ... new term for me, ... but I've always done that with all my new used cars. Excellent practice. Now...

After all the backyard work I've done on cars, i haven't seen this. The ignition cables and distributor cap are new, you can tell on inspection. The guy i bought it from changed them a month befor i got it. But the wierd thing is this, ... the cable leading from the coil, the end connecting to the cap looked loose, ... i grabbed it and it came off easy. The post inside the cable was corroded in half and stuck in the cap, covered with green guck. LOL, ... at least it's pretty obvious what the problem is now, ... didn't have to spend hours testing.

Thanks again for the help.
