Can't get it started
"How good" is the spark?
I ALWAYS "start" by checking spark right at the coil with a grounded probe (screwdriver and alligator lead) but you also need to understand that if you jumper the starter relay, this gives a weak spark because the ballast is still in the circuit ----it's bypassed if you twist the key to start
So you need two people, or a spark gap (Mine is a Lisle) or temp wire an alligator direct to the coil+ then you can jumper the relay and do it "one man."
Hold the probe up to the coil tower and look for a nice blue spark
compression.........spark.......and fuel
