Stop in for a cup of coffee
The connector for the distributor was always tight and we had to fight to get it plugged in, but sometimes it wouldn't go all the way...
Then we found a nick on the blue wire where it comes out of the harness, where they most likely pinched it in the fixture when they molded the end on...
So since that was the only component that we didn't replace to test, I crimped fittings on the ends of the new MP harness wires without trimming to length, just to check if it would work, and it did....
So we ran it that way for the break in and then when it proved to keep working, then I took out the "old" / "new" harness and replaced it with the one that came in one of my MP electronic conversion kits...
It's a shame in this day and age, that you can't rely that a brand new part is good and will work properly.... :icon_fU:
