After 3 years, I was hoping to finally fire up the LJ today.
Engine was removed from car 3 years ago, and has just gone back in after a full rebuild - nothing changed in the ignition system though.
Cranked it over, but no spark....
I'm running the HEI ignitiion, but basically put straight back in as it was removed, and was working when the engine was pulled out.
I'm fairly certain all wiring is connected correctly, as I followed a photo I took before removing it.
If I measure the voltage across the coil with everything connected, I get 3.9 volts. If I removed the red wire from the coil, it measures 12.8 volts.
I've tried swapping the coil out with another I had, but no change (can't be sure either coil is working, though both were when removed from car)
Not sure what to do next?
Any suggestions on what to check, and how to do it?
