I thank everyone for their help, but I was wondering what the advantage of having electronic ignition over regular ignition?? I found a new distributor for regular ignition at an auto parts store for $41.99. I was thinking about going back to regular ignition, instead of getting a new magnetic pickup (If that is the problem). The guy at the auto parts store told me that a new magnetic pickup is $40. Might as well get a new distributor and go back to regular ignition. Any pointers on what I should do?
