Last ran:
302, 4 bl edelbrock, msd 2 blaster coil, stock distributor with pertronix ignitor, centech harness, stock alternator. all parts less then 300 miles on them.
what changed:
i pulled the carb and installed offroad needle and seat, adjusted flots and added electric choke.
i wanted to adjust the timing so i hooked up the remote starter switch (did it incorrectly at first - hooked to left side of solenoid and to right side. nothing happened then i went to get the directions. decided to play with timeing later if needed.
wont start, cranks but wont fire. carb putting out fuel when i pull the throttle, so it gets gas.
no spark to engine.
coil got way hot from cranking.
checked coil, got spark from coil, none from plug wire.
What I changed out:
new stock points, new stock coil
got out meter.
Battery shows 10 volts.
coil positive side gets 8 volts
ceramic resistor takes in 10 volts, puts out 8 volts
no spark coimng out of coil (new or old now)
fuses all good.
what do i need to check next?
