And all this…because I wanted something “better” than a points ignition. dang

I checked all of my spade connections, ran a temporary extra ground, but no change. I also bypassed the ignition switch, thinking it might be intermittently grounding out, but that didn’t remedy the problem either.

New plug wires show up tomorrow.

I also pulled my 7inch dual diaphragm brake booster, and it is leaking very badly. New one on order. That sucker was in service for only 7 months before it failed. Now it’s got me wondering if it’s been leaking since day one…
