Hmmm, interesting. Was that .008 Hot? I know that the gap will open up when hot, that is why a car might start fine cold but not start hot. Back in the late 80s I converted my car to a Stinger Electronic Ignition kit, but I used a stock Chrysler distributor with their electronics box...

CHECK THE AIR GAP as suggested above. On mopar Electronic Ignition it is set at .004, the above poster recommends .008. VERY IMPORTANT USE A BRASS FEELER GAUGE, a steel feeler gauge will be attracted to the magnet and make it SEEM like the gap is correct when it is not. If the gap is not...
