Those things kick *** work on single wire fine if you know how to use them. Saved me hundreds of hours chasing short/opens/strands on aircraft.

Uhh yea... I meant as a test.
That wiring looks really good it is prob the ecu. Just started after the winter also, we used to have crap go bad in the spring and late fall with the temp swings all the time.
Why put a hole in the insulation to create future problems?

If it happens again, swap in a new ECU and you will have your answer after about 45 seconds of work.

I don't make a habit of doing it unnecessarily, but gotta test somehow. Open insulation at wire ends all over the place don't hurt anything...And the pickup is replaceable if I FU the wires. would be worth it to find the problem for sure. Might try to find a new 5pin connector for the ecu. That is definitely on my suspect list.

Hi Dave!
Here is a easy pass fail first thing tomorrow morning see if it starts after saoking in the cold, if not then try it around noon, if it starts then it is the ecu and get a good mopar one on order. It was around freezing when we had no spark then it was warmer when it did, not out of the possibility.
MP sells the whole harness for 40 dist plug to the ecu and the power wires.

Hey bartender!
I do that a lot too... I find myself to be a quite interesting coversationalist...
When it is up here we can load test the wires and see what happens.

You guys swapped coils?

Duster De-ruster
Will do. I agree that would be about 90% likely ECU. But an open anywhere - in the coil,pick-up or even an intermittent wire could act the same when warmed up.
Me too but in front of a mirror, is that still a one way conversation?
Nothing wrong with it at all, passed the tests and always had a hell of a spark just ask Keith!
Ben Drinkin
Hey bartender!
No sir. If you respond to you when you talk to you.... it's a two way conversation. I should know, I just told myself so.

No. But the biotch was throwing a spark an inch long! I held too close to the end of the wire once and got bit.
That was turning the distrib with it not in the block.
I do have a spare on order.
Pick up is out did it with both of them, seriously try it in the morning that was one of our troubleshooting tools on the 130's. Took out the wiring then it was a box somewhere.
LOL no worries spring is around the corner!

Yeh, broke *** me hasn't got a spare yet. But it will happen soon
There is a high fail one any one know which it is the orange one ?
