Reply to "Doesn’t want to start after tune up"

Of course, you have heard of the stock distributor pin shearing…. I had a case where it didn’t shear completely, but enough to significantly retard the timing…

So anyway - that’s another thing to look at, but if you do the timing checks, as suggested above, you will find if that’s the problem…

Anyway, my real point in is that a sheared distributor pin doesn’t ALWAYS result in your distributor not turning…. It can still get bound up, and your timing will continue to retard, until it eventually fails completely…. But until it fails, you are chasing a timing problem..  you reset it,  and then a week later you’re having the same paganism!

Good luck!
