it is pretty crazy for sure- the switch is just an actuator... you would think that as long as it was completing the circuit and the starter was turning the engine - the engine should run on it's own.. is there something inside the switch that maintains the connection? so if that is f-ed then the signal to the coil is interrupted? even that doesn't explain why it wouldn't at least start and then die...
Two different dizzies? Two different sets of wires from the dizzies to the coil One points also plus we verified a good spark by tapping the neg of the coil to ground. Really weird one for sure.
Looks like the mail maiden just left the shop. Goodies I hope. Any one get anything cool lately?
That's why we took the "car" wiring off the pos side of the coil and jumped 12v to it. It eliminates everything.

If Gore was involved it may have been a chad hanging up in there...
Has to be a bad dizzy ground maybe by paint on the holdown clamp but he checked it. No idea what fixed it.

right - hell, using a remote bump switch eliminates the ign. switch and you can still start the car... yea - a weird one

when in the aux position the switch does keep certain connections hot... obviously... I guess I can see it going south.. they do make replacements for a reason

it's from this guy
Once the 12v went on the coil every thing else was out of the system except the dizzy and coil.
Wondered where OMR was hanging out at these days.
