one thing after another...


so my fuel pump died over the winter at some point, just replaced it last week because i finally got motivated by the nice weather. been driving it around the last few days, no issues. driving it all morning, get to my girl's house for like 5 mins, shut it off... go to leave and it wont start. so messed with it for a minute, no spark....so its either my coil or MSD, hoping its just the coil. but we'll see...

so confused... went to go get it going today, but before i touched anything, tried to start it. fired right up. went back 2hrs later to pick it up, started it right up, shut it off for a second cause i wanted to make sure i tucked all the wires back away..... f'n thing didnt start back up for another few hours, this was about 3, didnt get it started till about 8, but i had to wait and not touch it till then....... have 0 clue, idk if its the fuel pressure or spark plugs? but i did the troubleshooting MSD says to do, and got nothing..... idk
