No start... again.

So does someone feel like explaining this magnetic pickup nonsense to me?
I will look into it though, it seems more and more likely.
I replaced all of the injectors with cleaned ones, and I put a little oil in each cylinder.
And after I got the new injectors in, the stupid *** little plastic fitting on my booster pump on the frame rail broke, so my front tank is now useless. (Until I replace that booster pump.) I plugged the hole and unplugged the front tank, tried starting off the rear on fresh gas and it did not do any good.
The magnetic pickup sounds like a good place to start, if only I knew what the effin thing was.

Cheap part and easy to install. You have to pull the gear and the shaft off the dist. to get to it. I made the stupid mistake of letting the oil pump rod come out with the dist., then it dropped down the hole and into the oil pan when I had the whole mess up and out of the motor.
Don't do that. I had to drop the oil pan to get my arm up there to get it.

And don't forget to mark the reluctor wheel so it goes back on the right way.
These instructions cover more than you need but might help.

A lot easier than pulling the ignition switch, would be to hot wire it. Run an insulated electrical wire from your positive battery post to the proper small wire on the coil. Not the side that goes to the distributor, but the other side. You should hook it to that terminal, while still leaving that double connector hooked on the coil.
