my spark is man-ly sized again.

thanks to kjb (johan) who hooked me up with a set of his wires. i just pieced together a good set with his wires and my dist end connectors. i didnt understand the entire ohms thing that warren and john walker explained until i had a good set of wires to compare to. i was reading my ohm units all wrong. kjb's connectors were consistently 3000 ohms, while mine went to infinity (AND BEYOND!) 5 of 6 were crap. again superman saved me a ton of cash. first was my CIS system.

thanks guys.

Always nice when it is a fairly inexpensive fix! Now get out and drive!

Unfixed,

Congrats, I was hoping the new wires would do the trick. Now get out there and drive the car before something else happens!!

He's got a point Cliff, save the oil leaks until the car is down with the next problem, put all the miles you can on it now!
