It's Alive !
« on: September 23, 2012, 21:06:14 »
Back on the road!
 
Took car out this spring, would barely run. 
Seemed to be sparving for fuel.
Dirty, dirty, rusty gas.  Clogged fuel lines.
Over the summer, attended to or replaced:
fuel tank
fuel pump
fuel lines
fuel hoses
and just when that was all done, now no spark!

Coil dying.  New coil.
Jackpot !

Thanks to all who offered help and suggestions along the way.
