Thank you @kmcteer, in my rush I did not check the timing after reinstalling the distributor. I did mark everything and put it back as such, but it doesn't mean it's quite right. I can check the advance, but I believe it's also working correctly. I feel like even if the timing/ advance was off slightly, it may not run perfectly but likely wouldn't just poop it's pants after 20 mins of running?
The new Green wire checked out from distributor to the first connection (old one not great, male connection had deteriorated) but will have to double check from that connection back to the CDI.
I'll look back into the CIS as you suggest as well.
I didn't look at the eng/ trans ground but will. I know there's one by the transmission, any other major ones that might cause issues with running?
@trials935 great point. I'll look, and unfortunately I think I threw my old one away! I had done a few hours of driving on the new cap/ rotor before the road trip, so it was working for a while....
