Re: odd idle issue

I THINK I found at least part of this issue. Distributor died on me last Saturday. And its an intermittent deal to boot. I WILL be replacing it soon as well as re timing the motor to be sure everything is in order.

Re: Wiring question

I have the gray/blue right where it should be PLUS these. Hence why I asked. I will most likely pull said mini harness out as I do not see anything in the diagrams which match what I have.

Re: Wiring question
