I’m chasing down an ignition issue. Short story, stock 1980 California spec FJ40. did routine: cap,rotor, wire, plug refresh, then would not restart. No cough, no back fire, no stumble, just crank & crank. Firing sequence double checked.
Weather closed in before getting it resolved & took it to a local shop. Shop is stumped, but said something interesting, & not sure if it triggers ideas from more experienced wrenchers in the forum. They said when cranking, first spark is strong, then spark continues but weak. Does this suggest coil ?, ignitor?, distributor ?
