Wouldn't start

We had six inches of rain so of course that's the morning my 89 B2 wouldn't start.

I finally got a chance to pull the ditributor cap off and noticed the connection for the coil wire was black and all the contacts in the cap were corroded as well. I examined the coil wire and same story.

$20 and a new set of wires later I'm back on the road.

Up and running

Thats great you have the knowledge to keep your rig running, I guess thats half the fun of owning an older rig I enjoy wrenching on my Bronco also.

Exactly DD, being able to keep your own rig running is priceless. Good job thatcher!
