I need some help with an old Dodge truck.

Update.


I pulled the advance plate out of the distributer, cleaned the rust out of and off of the housing. Cleaned the plate and its edges. Replaces the old cloth jacket wire with new wire. New condenser out of (I think) a 70s mopar V8. Reset point gap.

I used the old wires, cap and rotor as I did not have replacements yet.

The spark is week bit it is there.

I sprayed some starting fluid in the carb and hit the post on the starter with 200amp +12V i was lazy and jumped the 200 amp to the coil hot post as well....

She kicked over and poped to life!

I think my jump box went into thermal over load because it was dead when I tried to hit it again. (No voltage out of the jump box)

I was using one of my MSD blaster 2 coil(s) and it was very warm... (guessing it didn't like 200 amps) :)

Gonna rebuild the carb. Hook up a gravity feed and see if I can get it to run for more than a few seconds.

If i get that lucky, then its on to fuel tank, fuel line and breaks.

I think if I get lucky I can reach this guys goal and not be over budget for once.
