FINALLY
 
1 Attachment(s)
well, i've been working on-and-off on my 86, WS6 for a couple years. it was running great then sat in the garage and WOULD NOT START. i replaced the starter switch (which i thought was going to be easy but it wasn't) and the ignition module et...nothing worked. i finally just bought a cheap, CarDone complete distributor and dropped it in. THAT DID IT. it must have been my pickup coil because that's the only thing that i didn't change but i wanted a clean slate so i just bought the entire distributor. so that is a load off of my mind. now i can concentrate on getting tires and painting. the interior is pristine so i don't have to do anything on the inside. it's an all original, white, ws6, TA, 305, 4bbl, 5sd. not many were made in this configuration and few survived unmolested. this is the way i found this car. at the time it was running terrible but i realized that the plugs were fouled. afterwards it ran great. now running again!

Nice car,is that a LG4 OR A L69? According to PHS they only made 28 L69 and the manual 5 sp. was available for that engine at the time.

it's an LG4 but it goes pretty good. when i get tires on it, i'll upload a video. the window sticker says that it will get 30mpg on the highway. not bad....
