Weak spark, checked and cleaned the plugs, coil connections, battery connections, starter conn. new battery, new coil, still nothing. It is getting fuel, been sitting for maybe 4 months. Must move it to my new place.
Any ideas? Condenser maybe? | | | | | Joined: Jan 2011 Posts: 23 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Jan 2011 Posts: 23 | have you cleaned your points? what color is your spark? | | | | | Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 19 Apprentice | | Apprentice Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 19 | Thanks, I put in new points, condenser, plugs, wires all that stuff was old as heck. Changed the ballast resistor, fuel filter too. Fired up immediately, except there was an unfamiliar knocking sound. Switched 2 plug wires, fixed that and she's good to go.
Now of course I don't want to sell the truck! Runs better than ever! | | |
