From the guy that preached the greatness of Pertronix...that was the problem.
Once I went back and correctly adjusted the dwell (initial readings of +90 degrees were embarrassing) my baby fired right up. At first I thought it was my MSD coil cause I swtiched out to an old Bosch Blue. But, the key to test...change one thing at a time. So I went back to the MSD coil and it still ran.
Anyone know how to get Pertronix to honor a warranty?? Is it through Pelican (the guys I bought it from) or through Pertronix themselves. Anyone know if the Ignitor II fixes this type of problem?
Thanks to all you guys who helped. And especially to Dave for posting his answers both here and on the Yahoo group!!!
This owning a 914 stuff has taught me more about electronics than my whole school career!!!
Thanks again...
JB
