Howdy all, I have a '71 Chevy K10 with a '67 283 in it that I just finished putting heads and an intake on. However, my spark is very weak, so I can't get it to start up, it sputters and tries to start, but just can't get going. Anyways, I was pulling my distributor out to verify my timing, with is just the stock Delco distributor with an Ignitor II module to replace the points. When I got the gear up out of the manifold, I accidentally bumped it against the intake, and much to my surprise a blue arc of electricity arced from the dist. to the intake. Needless to say, I was pretty sure that was not kosher. I checked the wiring on the Ignitor to make sure it wasn't worn through, and I couldn't find anything. Can this module go bad and short out or could something else in the distributor be causing this short? Thanks in advance.
