Slant 6 ignition
Also did this all happen after the points change?
Hello Dr Hoppy,
The symptoms of the #6 and #1 plug wires not showing up on the timing gun flash was happening before the points change. I was a little scientific in that I did one change at a time and started car in between changes.
car runs like shite........took out and tried to "clear it out"
clean plugs........a slight but noticeable change in the right direction (if I even remember correctly)
still running like shite.......change points and condensor but use matchbook to gap points (possible error)
At this point it seems like I have added a "no spark in the wire" condition on #1 (not just #6) that has now persisted. (#6 will fire intermittently with an RPM increase)
Change cap n rotor..........Shite
Final result as of walking away yesterday eve is ........#6 and #2 are intermittent spark with RPM, and no spark at idle. #1 cylinder no spark condition all the time.
Thanks to you all for the time and knowledge you have given me.
