No spark on half the motor!

It was clearly stated that there is no shift switch on a 1982 model V-6 like yours !

More likely its bad stator, flip the brown connectors from stator to oppisite sides

Sorry, I missed that!

Haven’t looked just yet, but would those wires be long enough to swap to the opposite side??

Pretty sure that's a question no one needs to answer.

No offense.

TROUBLESHOOTING THE TIMER BASE
NO FIRE ON ONE BANK OR 1 CYLINDER

1. Disconnect the Timer Base connector for the side not firing and check the resistance from the White to the Green, Purple and Blue wires. The reading should be approximately 18 ohms to each wire.

2. Disconnect the Timer Base connector for the side not firing and check to see if the pins have gotten pushed back either in the pack connector or the new Timer Base.

3. Remove the pins from the connectors and see if a pin is broken on the pack or the new Timer Base.

4. Check the DVA voltage from the White to the Green, Purple and Blue wires. You should have at least 0.5 volts.

5. Check the DVA voltage from the Brown to the Brown/Yellow Stator wire. You should have at least 150 volts.

6. Swap the power packs side to side and verify the problem stays on the same sid

Checked all the pins! Appears all is ok, on both sides of the engine! Ohms test on both sides, are between 18/19 for each pin! Don’t have DVA capability, so had to order the unit. Should be in soon! Now, decided to switch the power packs around just for the heck of it! This time the results show a BAD power pack! Ordered a “good” used one off eBay. Should be here in a couple days! I’ll keep you all posted!

Power pack came in today! Installed it, and, SUCCESS! Firing on all 6 cylinders! Thanks for all your ideas!
