Re: dizzy turns on fuel pump? relay
Your ICM sends a signal to the fuel pump relay when the dizzy is turning.
Its normal.
You need a factory service manual from Helm INC.

To go on and off by moving the dizzy!
Def showing my depth of tech knowledge and a Helms manual would be wonderful, but the 120$ and week to get one isn't going to help me today and just don't have it! I would be more prompted to drop 120 on a dizzy if I believed that was the issue.
I pulled all wiring on driver side and looks fine and what would be odd to me, would be the fact that during timing, you can't turn dizzy advance to much or it'll chop out n stall....going restarted just makes it richer and richer.
I really feel like its a catch 22 and if some one can scan that page of helms I'll be glad to buy it!

Did you disconnect the tan/black timing wire?
