I changed my wires, and thought I knew where to put the wires, but I guess not.

I've searched and found 2 possibilities.....(looking at the distributor)

3 4
1 2

or

4 2
3 1

I've tried both and just get backfires. Really loud ones too....lol Should I unplug the battery and reset the ECU - WIll that help?

WTF?

 

is 1-3-4-2

34
12

 

Yup, thats how I originally put them on. On the first cranking, it cranked like 10+ times and didn't fire. When I let go of the key, it gave a HUGE backfire. SO I assumed I had them wrong.

This really sucks, cause I got a dyno run first thing in the morning.....

 

i hope that huge back fire wasnt your headgasket blowing....

 

maybe youre flooded.

 

yep, or maybe your dizzy just went bad

 

Figured it out. The distributo was in 180 degrees wrong. so my firing order was:

2 1
4 3

Pretty fucked eh? I didn't have time to re-re the distributor, so I just put the wires on like that, and it worked fine.

Made 300 WHP @ 15 PSI today too!

 

all it takes is 3 mins to flip the dizzy so that it is correct....
