Ingition/Distributor issues...short circuit??? 120-130

Shannon;

AAAAAAAHHHHHHH...I didn't get that out of my first reading, but NOW I DO!...I took that "generic coil" to mean OE and "I still have the coil with armored cable, etc." to mean that it was still installed, not that he had it in a box in the garage (in which case it's irrelevant to the symptoms on the car) ...so that means that Brian has installed a different coil (but he mentions nothing of a ballast resistor and how it is switched into and out of the primary circuit)...and now when it doesn't work, he is hoping someone here can figure out the mess he's in...I don't think that will be me...

Brian; At this point, I have no idea what you have after having changed it from the stock configuration, and I haven't gotten enough info from your post to know what you have...therefore can venture no guesses to help you figure out why its not working...if you are the engineer on your reconfigured IGN system, then its time to do some more engineering...

Good Hunting
