Check the RED WIRE to the distributor. 12 VOLT U can always hook
up 12v directly from the battery For procwss of Elimination as the
12volt being your problem

replace the distributor with used one from the junk yard, clean it and
inspect it first. before removing from your vehicle disconnect battery.
put replacement on with rotor point same direction as old one---after all
together use timing light to set timing properly or it won't run
ight. ------of course various other things could cause this, such as your
module, and lots of other related items.

The IGNITION SWITCH may Be BAD.. It is located at THE BOTTOM of
your Steering Colum Near the BRAKE PEDAL. This is WHY I SAID to HOT
WIRE the CAR.. Apply 12 Volts to the RED WIRE that Goes to the
Distributor..


Does this Vehicle HAVE a TACH METER ??? If SO DONNOT hook Those
Wires Back up to the Distributor ..
