I didn't catch the term "trying to turn over" before now. I think I did ask about that. You said it turns over at a good rate. Then you mentioned starter?

I still did not get a reading from battery. Ignition OFF, measure across posts. Do that ASAP. Read my PM to you.

If it has gas, if coil is direct fed now, if Pertronix unit and coil are good, if battery is good, it HAS TO START.
