Damn thing just quit. No spark. Currently walking up the old country road to get a coil from my office. Figure I gotta 50/50 chance of fixing it with that. Wish me luck. Sent from my iPhone using the TJJ app
Better snag a condensor while you are at it. Remember kevin's flatty? That*****s dude. Keep us informed.
Dude...*****s to be you right now. Wish I was there though, sometimes break downs begat the best stories! Ever set your car on fire by the side of the road, in the dark, 80 miles from anywhere?!
first break down after driving it how many days on a regular basis? If I could afford the gas I would drive mine daily. I laugh thinking about how modern car's have all this computer controlled sensors and electronics that could keep them from working, and then laugh because people tow their modern vehicles if they can't get it to start. Us rodders just get a ride to the local parts store and buy a simple part and we are back on the road. Gotta love the "progress" modern car's have made.
you'll do fine bro... just be glad you didnt have to walk it on a day like we had up here in green bay a few days ago... snow n ice!
While you fixing stuff...... fix yourself a sandwich while your at the office. Need to keep the noggin clearly thinking.
Maybe we need to have a "glass" party for Ryan @**** & everyone could fly in/show up and replace the window. I hate to say it, but that would drive me nuts. Chris Oh yea, I have a rope that I can tow you with if you need it?
You wouldn't last a day in texas. humidity was 86% yesterday here in the dallas area. but to get back on topic, what shop do you work for? I am not too familiar with you sir, just know you drive the poo out of that car.
OH........it was the car! I thought you were having your first "NERVOUS BREAKDOWN",hahahaha! It could be worse.......you could be hearing a knocking sound!!!!!!
Not sure on that year distributor, but later years had a wire under the advance plate that would short out or break off. Maybe look there if the other fixes don't work.
"He IS in Texas,knucklhead!!!!!!!" I was replying to Fiddyfour, knucklehead!!! (read the whole thread)
Great looking car. Hope its there when you get back. Some real sad stories lately on this HAMB.*****s when you are forced to leave it.

Step on out and open 'er up iffin ya don't mind boy... You got a coil in your office it's better than my office. LOL
