Sorry for the long wait to update. I added two new ground straps and check the distributor again. I was somehow off 3 teeth after checking it many times. I guess that's why sometimes you need to walk away and not think about it for awhile. Anyhow got the car running and its great. Fires right up and idles great and is a bit quicker now with the ...

The only ignition upgrade for extra spark is the basic lucas sport ''GOLD'' coil. It does have a new cap,rotor,and modern style spark plug wires that fully cover the spark plug ends. I am really wondering if I need to make another ground strap that goes under the cap like the stock one did.

Well swapped the plugs to ones with better resistance and it still misfires like crazy. I even added a few temporarry ground strapes to see if that would help and it didn't do anything.  However I pulled the #4 plug out and laid it against some metal to see if it was getting spark and the car fired right up and even ran smoothly with that ...

I check the distributor again another 3 times and its in correctly. I have an electronic setup so no points or condenser here. He did tell me that unless it had resistor spark plugs this can cause problems with random missfires. I am running Autolite 63 plugs which they say is in the resistor class, yet they list it as supressor. Makes me wonder ...

I got my distributor rebuilt by advanced distributor, however I can not get it to run well at all. distributor is in correctly, checked it 3 times now, base timing should be good enough to get it to run. And yet it will idle and backfire out the carbs constantly if you touch the throttle. Even with me advancing and retarded it I can get it to even ...

How long did it take most of you to get your dis back? I sent mine out on the Aug 27th, and I have not even heard from him yet. According to UPS he has had it for 8 days now. I'm really anxious to get it back in the car and drive it again.

I'm not saying they are gonna screw me over, I just have delt with other companies that would not honor returns and place blame on the customer for parts that never worked. Lets just say I have been screwed over before because of this. I just want the car to be legal to drive lol.

So the flasher is defective, I by passed it and it the lights turned on. So the new modern flasher is not sending out power to the lights for some odd reason. Called Moss and I have to send it back in to their return department and wait for them to tell me if I can return it or not. Not sure how I feel about that. Makes me feel like I am going to ...

Thanks for the help, that totally skipped my mind to try. Always good to get a new person to toss in fresh ideas. I will post back how that works.

The car has the new Moss modern relay, so no more adjusting is needed on it. When I tested the turn signals and lights the first time before it blew them all I had the engine off. It was running on just battery power. This was before I went back through the car and fixed a few bad grounds I had. I got the brake lights working again no ...
