Brief history:
Ditched attempts at using electronic distributor, fixed my 25D instead, new wires, new coil, etc.
Confirmed that my TDC is correct and I am not 180 out
Getting lots of good spark finally
All new fuel line, electronic fuel pump, clean filter and clean carburetor (Rochester)
Clean fuel pumping straight from a fresh can
Carb was leaking at base this morning so put new gasket and all is good now
Turns over lovely with my new high ratio starter
Converted from 24v to 12v, new Painless style wiring harness, GM style starter switch, Ford style remote solenoid
She turns over, fires up and goes vroom vroom (boy that is a pretty sound after not hearing it for over a year!)...as long as I hold the key over. As soon as I let the key release it shuts down.
Opinions? Something wired wrong, timing still off?
Thanks all!
