On the road to recovery…UPDATED!

Research, hard work, and general sitting around thinking about the problem has paid off.

Not 30 minutes ago, I finished reassembling the distributor after first disassembling it, and reversing the wires on the pickup coil. Basically, the pickup coil tells the spark plugs when to fire. I was right, the two wires were reversed, and that was causing the engine to backfire through the intake, sound funny, and overall run like ass.

Tomorrow, I’ll call Mr. Transmission. They quoted me the lowest price on rebuilding it. This means I will likely meet my deadline of having it running this week!

    Sounds like it’s more expensive because of the 4×4. I’d say the transfer case is what is making the price go up so much.

    Good luck man!
