460 won't start
Okay guys/girls here it is, my 460 had the fuel pump go bad and so I replaced that and it ran fine for two days of me playing with it, it is not on the road yet. Now it will not start again. There is plenty of fuel in the carb now, but I think that there is no spark. I put a new coil on last night and still nothing. I am going to check for spark tonight, but if anyone has any hints please let me know. :*

Check for spark. If it still won't start, it may be flooded. A little particle of dirt from changing the pump could have gotten in the line and is holding up the float valve in the carb.

Take your ignition module to most parts stores for free testing to eliminate that problem. Coils rarely go bad anymore due to improved materials and construction. You can also test your distributor pickup at the parts store.
