73 satellite?

[trevorlawrence]

Hi All,

My dad has got a 73 satellite with a 318 and its not running right I think it might be out of time. It's got a miss. I think the coil might be bad. I am going to change the coil and regap the plugs. What is the gap suppose to be on this engine?

I changed the volt regulator, control module and ballist resistor and got it to start again but its still got a miss and it doesn't have much power. Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Trevor.

Hook up a timing light to each plug wire in order to see if it's electrical. If not, do a compression test to see if it's got a burned valve.
