Rich Andrade registered a failure with the LH that would cause a no start issue. The ground circuit was bad. So I'm hopeful this might be one of the problems. I had an idea that the spark module was working correctly because I have two of the EZF, (EZK?) spark modules. Both of them will make the car fire, so I had an idea that the LH was the one that was not working correctly. This is certainly one of the cars problems.
I have done one inconsistent compression test, but I'm going to repeat it because I forgot to drop oil in some of the cylinders, and don't like the tester that I have. All cylinders are running over 80psi. What is good compression and what is bad compression for this engine?
With oil squirted in the back two cylinders they both registered about 137, and 135. Like a said, several of the cylinders did not get oiled. So they run in between 80 and 125psi. I'm not done with the compression testing yet!

Also the spark plugs had gasoline on them so I was getting some fuel spray from the injectors before the LH was sent out. I have not cleaned the injectors yet. I'm fixing to start working on that, but before the LH and EZF were sent for testing the car WOULD NOT tick over even with starting fluid, it would only fire once in a while, and there's a burnt gasoline exhaust smell. Almost like it was only firing on two or three cylinders. It may be?
I'll do a better compression test and report here, but I do know the LH has failed.
