I'm dead in the driveway fellas. I washed the car parked back in garage and dried it hooked up the trailer and backed it into position and started the car and got it lined up, the car was running fine and as I was just making final ramp adjustments it just shut off. It stumbled and died, it will turn over but not fire. I can see gas comming out of venturies when I move acel rod. WTF is this a omen not to make the trip to NJ? ebo2010-09-23 15:07:07

Took the cap off rotor looks fine pulled the coil and the rubber disc looks fine still has the grease on it the spring and plunger looks good I did a little polishing on coil to spring pick up and put it all back together....visions of adams dist. mess were dancin in my head Still will not fire can smell fuel. I took off a plug wire stuck a long screw driver in end of boot and do not see any spark jumping......bad coil? Did changing all the other components mess it up. I did go with an Accel copper cap instead of alumin...... 

Put a pick up module in it and get going..! That's the little thing under the rotor..! I have the Accell heavy duty brass cap also. Works perfect..I don't go to casinos either..!

I just went down and got a coil and changed it out same thing. I'll see if they have a pick up module....nope I'll have to see if some one else has one...does 53 bucks sound right?

Just called Autozone here..21.99 for a Duralast brand junk..might be tough to get an Accell or good aftermarket one tonight ..maybe GM dealer in the morning will have one..or just take it out of your other car!
Darn gremlins!
