Re: Thunderbolt IV ignition HELP!!!!
Ok, Heres the outcome:
I gave up!! , install the electronic ignition , distributer and coil new wires new plugs and nothing happened, although with this new distributor i got spark,but the engine was turning too slow and after a couple of tries turn a little faster, then went back to turn too slow, i figure maybe is the battery not giving enough juice so i hooked up the other battery check the both were delivering 12.6 v , crank it again nothing, i connected everything as Don say and according to the schematic he sent me , nothing , then I bypass the cut off switch , and disconnect the tach wire ,nothing i kept trying but the engine still turn slow and fart, was almost like it will go around a cycle 4 slow turns then 2 fast and then fire, then the battery was really hot and out of juice, I had gas in the carb and put a little starting fluid, nothing! check the key switch , was good , so then i thought maybe the drive was not installed correctly and its slowing down the engine , i had it replaced last year, took the drive out crank it again same thing nothing. So I just give up , I really don't know what could it be , theres no water in the oil the spark plugs were clean all the wiring seems ok, last year i had a small leak in the drive that little hole on the bottom that most of the people dont know what it is , well it was leaking a little oil never pay too much attention to it , then i went out and blowthe drive i in the middle of the chesapeake bay there was a really loud grinding noise and the engine just shut off, got towed back and got it inspected , yep it was gone, bought a used one put it in then i moved to Texas and never started the engine again until last couple of weeks and can get it to start, and i can't find any post with similarities to my case, i don't know what to do now .
