I'm guessing what you replaced was the pickup coil inside the distributor, since "Ignitor" is the Pertronix name for their electronic unit that fits inside the distributor. Glad you made it back to school! Study hard and one day you will be able to afford to pay shop rates to have clowns throw parts at problems 'til they get lucky and find what a little simple troubleshooting would have led them to if they knew how!
OOPS, I think I just had a FEELING moment there - - -'scuse me..... and no offense intended to the few, the proud, the mechanics that DO know how to troubleshoot!
Well, that cool new electrical stuff could be the beginnings of your next project car, if you have the wrench sickness like some of us do!
