Thanks for the tip, I pulled the plugs and found that all four were fouled and smelled like gas. I had pulled one the day before the problem showed up and it was normal which led me to re visit the wiring and the ignition leading me to the copper 1/2 inch braded strand of wire that I had pinched off and caused the short. YOur help ws invaluable. I proceeded to set the timing and the car is really running great, ending about 3-4 weeks of buyers remorse.. Thank you

Jim Wentworth
