no start update 200

The spark I had checked is from the coil wire to the hood hinge, that way I can check it alone. I ahve done this in the past, reently in fact, with good results. When I tried an hour ago, I was getting spark in like one out of every 7 or 8 cranks. So the spark issue is pre-distributer. At some point, although everything looks great, I will be replacing the cap, rotor, and plugs just for good measure. Soon , I will also do the timing belt for good measure as well. And maybe even the radiator, just so I know where everything stands. Beofre the big stuff though, I gotta get the thing running. The big stuff is assuming I don't sell the beast and buy a 700 turbo. Either way, gotta get it going!
