Garage
I took a stab at getting to the clutch switch for the cruise control adjusted and checked. I got down to the gas pedal removed, the pedal floor board removed and down to the switch. I guess I am too fat and old to get to the switch. I buttoned it all back up and went for a drive. The car ran great.
I stopped for gas and the car would not start. The starter spun fast but no spark. Cussing did not fix it but I felt better.
I walked the three blocks home, got the Elky and some tools and drove back and replaced the DME relay. It started but was not running quite right. I started home and the engine died but would restart. I coasted up the driveway and managed to get back into the garage. Mrs Carrera drove me back down and I got the Elky home.
The problem was the coil. I replaced the coil with the spare I have.
Cured. Yea.
