JT outfitters - i ordered on thursday last week, but emailed 5 days ago... It's that Mels kit - it says in stock so im not sure.Who did you order it through?
Man, there’s no reason for anything to take 5 days or longer to ship!
Time zone differences make that a little tough lol by the time i get home from work its 930pm there, and mornings I am terrible at and dont wake up good, thats why I shot off an email. I keep checking my mailbox just in case but I am starting to be worried about it.Call Em![]()

Here’s your sign…It's a sign...
Yep!Here’s your sign…
I read a bunch of stuff that its reboxed pertronix from this page so i figured it was safe lol that and it's a site vendor. So far the best site vendor has been gamiviti. That dude emails back QUICK.Mels, haven’t heard that one in a minute.
Once again, EFI does the fuel.I read a bunch of stuff that its reboxed pertronix from this page so i figured it was safe lol that and it's a site vendor. So far the best site vendor has been gamiviti. That dude emails back QUICK.
Its a sign from the LC gods to throw away the stock distributor and carb and spring for the EFI kit.
The efi kit replaces the distributor as well. Youre thinking of the TBI kit. They put a whole new distributor, with ecu, as well as put TBI on.Once again, EFI does the fuel.
You're having ignition problems.
If you can't make a system work which has one power wire and one ground, how is adding the complexity of a hundred powers, and a hundred grounds supposed to fix things? Are you suddenly going to be more willing to check a ground connection because there's dozens of them vs just one?
Is that ground point that doesn't work now, suddenly going to not have paint on it because you bought a fuel injection system?
Nothing about this makes any logical sense. You owe it to yourself to proceed based on the facts alone.
Doagnose it from a factual standpoint.
If there's power at the coil, power at the points, good coil, good condenser and still lousy spark then you've got a bad ground.
Check the coil by shorting the +to ground, see if it sparks.
Check the condenser by charging it up and zapping your kid.
Check the wires with a DVOM.
This is as simple as it gets and if you're unwilling or can't diagnose this, then computerized fuel management is the wrong answer for you.
Computerized systems are orders of magnitude more complicated than this.
