I'm running out of ideas!!!

I changed the coil, ignition modual,and pick up coil.

I checked for power to the coil...its there.
I directly grounded the the coil to the batt.

Still after running for about 1min the car shuts off and wount run for about 4 hours!!!!

WHAT SHOULD I DO NEXT!!!

 

check the modual, doesn't really matter if you just replaced it, check it again when the problem develops.

 

I will try that....the old one I pulled out tested ok cold and hot I just replaced it to eliminate any possibilities.

 

Will it start if you squirt starting fluid into it? (Might not be an ignition problem at all...)

 

The car does get fuel...I have a in line spark tester that will allow the car to run well checking for spark, after about a minute the spark just stops.

I tried grounding the distributor and the coil directly to the batt. along with the intake manifold just in case......still loses spark!!!

 

use a hair dryer or heat gun to warm it up, see if you can make it fail

 

I will pull out the heat gun and give it a try....I will try anything at this point!

 

this may be a long shot here but maybe heat is causing resistance is an ignition wire somwhere. have you done any modifitying to anything electrical at all on your car? does the car just shut off like turning the key off?

 

Yes...the car just shut off like someone turned the key.

I had a crane cams booster box and coil, I went back to stock after all this started.

Well...you where write ede, I took the module off the car and checked it after the car wouldn't run. It was bad! I went out and picked up a new one (A/C Delco this time) and the car runs great. I guess that is what I get for buying a no name part the first time around.

 

I almost forgot.....

THANKS FOR ALL THE HELP

 

NightHawk, when you replaced the module the first time, did you use the heat sink grease with it? If you don't use the grease, you'll overheat the module in no time. And, did you use the grease with the new module? If it didn't come with the stuff, you can buy a little tube of "heat sink grease" from Radio Shack for $5.

 

Yea...I put it on both times. I have a large tube of it from carquest.
