Re: Fire problems? Make sure it's not grounding out somewhere.
Have you pulled the spark plug out while in the boot, grounded it to the block and watched to see if it got spark when you crank it? _________________ CSM Custom 18x42 Battleship with a 36 PD beating you to the hole My Rig (Old Motor) viewtopic.php?f=5&t=45193 (New Motor) viewtopic.php?f=5&t=54733 Stumps Fear Me |

Re: Fire problems? Did the coil you get come as a complete assembly?

Re: Fire problems? Your plug wire is in good shape? Check continuity on the wire to Verify its not broken inside the insulation.

Re: Fire problems? swap plug wires from one side to the other. if the problem switches sides, you've got a bad plug wire.
