fried coil??
I have a 74 911 2.7l with webers. I have had problems with the ignition system and a loss of power.
The car was running(but rough). I started to reset the gap on my points and did so successfully. Now the car won't start.
It just turns over and over with its seems no firing. While examining the ignition system for idiot problems, I noticed that one of the leads leaving the coil is VERY loose and moves freely. Not the connection, the post that goes into the coil. In addition, there is a melted rubberized material exuding from it looks like the post area.
Is it possible to "melt" a post? Or is this some material used to prevent corrosion? It has the consistency of dried rubber cement.
I would appreciate any info.
