Hey... on my car (1972 Chevelle, everything is connected perfectly fine (vacuum hoses, hoses, belts, timing, valves adjusted perfectly, new oil, filter, fuel filter, fuel lines etc...) Anyway, on my car, we had a mechanic come and check it out at my house. We started it, and it gets really close to starting but won't go. It practically does start but doesn't go. Fresh fuel, adjusted carb and everything works fine. It is getting fuel. And we checked for spark with new plugs... it is getting spark and it is aligned perfectly. So, when we turn it over, it won't start all the way and if someone holds the throttle wide open while it's turning over and spraying fuel in there and it backfired like crazy; however, it does sound really close to going and the timing is correct (checked with the timing light and not 180 degrees off). So, this guy said that the HEI MSD Distributor is a crappy one to have. And that the module is probably bad and not emitting a spark at the right time. Whadya think?
