well, it was finally time to crank it and it wont run. didnt think it would right off due to all the stuff that had to be done but here is what I got. I am missing something and it is probably obvious but need help. I am not getting any fire to the plugs. at first I didnt have anything from the switch in the start position. I found the wire powering the switch through the bulkhead was dead. fixed that and then I got the motor to turn over from the switch. I replaced the coil (stock) because I found a split down the bottom side of it where you couldnt see it from the top. Remember this car was in a field for 20 years and had been stripped of most stuff. should have had my head examined for doing this but my son wanted it. May still have it done when I get finished with this. I have power to both sides of the coil when the ignition is in the run position but lose it when it goes to the start pos. I think maybe that is where the problem is. I have checked the schematics and think I have it all wired right. I am leaning towards either the dist. or the control module. I have no idea if either are good or bad. have never heard this engine run. what could cause no spark to the plugs.thanks,Bill
