[QUOTE="absidian, post: 195331, member: 4356"] Good diagnostic information you have there. Certainly sounds like the problem is the sparking or current to the plugs. i'd re-check the entire circuit, grounding straps, and distributor again. [B]Are your spark plugs ok and correct spec?[/B] You can remove to inspect and see if they've been damaged from the distributor problem or the incorrect combustion so far (black smoke as indicator if incomplete combustion). I reckon they're gunked up by now too. Have your HT leads/distributor been reconnected in the [B]correct firing order?[/B] Hope that helps, good luck. Now you've got me thinking too :confused: [/QUOTE]
