That shouldn’t matter is the cruise control is gone. Do you have access to a vacuum pressure gauge? I’d get one of those and disconnect both lines at the pump. Connect a gauge on the pressure side and crank the engine. Should have 4-6psi. Then connect it to the suction side. Crank it again and you should have 10-15inhg of vacuum. If these tests pass your fuel pump, push rod and cam lobe are good. Problem then mostly likely is you are sucking air someplace between the pump and the bottom of the fuel tank.

Hi I watched this video. I have a 72 stock 340 duster. My module has melted the epoxy but car still runs. I bought an aftermarket high performance module to replace. It does not start the car. I put the old module back in and it runs. The person sent a replacement and he Said he never had a bad module. Well the second one does not work either but the original on so works. I test as you video states and all is good but I do not get a milivolt reading from pickup coil. It ohms out good. I get spark with the new box if I ground out the harness side of pickup coil harness. So my question is can a pickup coil ohm out ok but not trigger the new box but will trigger the old one? I have a new pickup coming. Thank you. Great video!
@LakelandAutoMarine2 жыл бұрын
Could be. The transistor in the replacement modules may require a higher A/C voltage or more importantly A/C peak to peak voltage than the originals. Too wide of pickup coil air gap could also affect the output, especially at low speed such as cranking. The gap spec is .008-.012. Most newer transistors require at least 500mv A/C to react.

Ok so I've got a question, ive got a 318 in a 1976 Trojan F26. Same configuration as you all the way down to wire colors and wire routing. I've got 12v to the coil with the box unplugged, 5v with it plugged, I get the correct 200mv from the distributor pickup and 8 get a spark from the coil with a test light when I flick the key on when it first gets energized. With the key on, I ground out the grey wire coming off the ignition box and cannot get the test light to flicker off the coil output. I tried touching the same wire to power just to see what would happen and nothing yet again. If with the key on I tap 12v power to the positive stud on the coil I get the test light to go off again. Basically my question is how do I get the signal wire off the ignition box to trigger the coil to discharge? Is there a checklist of things just for that wire? Should I be looking for anything not getting the right power? Could the coil be bad?... im just lost, everything checks out up to the point where I try to manual discharge the coil with a jumper wire from the grey ignition box wire.

*An important piece for conversion kits:* in this video there is a "middle" 2-wire harness between the ignition box and the distributor pickup. This harness is _critical_ in order to have the box see the proper signal from the distributor. While you're able to plug the grey 2-wire connector directly into the distributor pickup (orange & black), the polarity is reversed. The proper orientation does not connect being male-male & female-female, requiring that intermediate harness.

So i put a spark plug on the coil wire and crank it, sparks couple times and stops or doesn't spark at all. 2 possible issues i think. no reading of mil volts on the magnetic pickup, and coil gives jumpy resistance readings but maybe that cause i didn't remove its positive or negative wires.

With the ignition in run position I use the 50850 hooked to the coil wire and I get spark when grounding the distributor pick up wire. But when trying to go through the distributor I get nothing.

Am I right on the voltage I’m seeing to little for it to signal the ignition box to fire the coil?

@@LakelandAutoMarine So my engine turns over and runs pretty good actually. I just wanted to diagnose the ignition system because it is all original (1974 360 duster) and sometimes the car will die randomly so I think it has to do with the ignition system sometimes failing. So once I plug in the ECU the voltage at the positive terminal of the coil drops to 6.5 while the voltage at the negative terminal drops to 1.24. Does this mean the ECU may have an issue? In your video I believe it drops to 5v on both sides of the coil with ECU plugged in. Also what was weird. When testing the wire coming from the Ignition Harness/ECU, it was reading -.029v where as in your video you read .5v. Coil ohm 1.6 Every other part of the diagnostic was up to par. Thanks for the video! Sorry for the lengthy response.

Would the module have to do with misfiring or backfire through exhaust pipe?

It could. He controls the coil.

They weren't that bad it was mostly the modules that failed other that it's fine

Please drink some fucking water. And what did you hook your test light to prior to jumping the spark tester gap?
