hey guys. i got home from outa town, and my car wouldnt start. its the crossfire injected 305, and it has an accel distro....at least cap.

i called the guy i bought the car from, and he said he had had a few problems with the 3 wire harness coming unplugged from the distro.

i check this, and find that the C+ wire is completely out of the spade terminal.

also, the spot that is labeled 'tach' is not connected (which im thinking could explain my tach not working'), and the blue wire which connects to the 'BAT', comes in and out as well.

do i need to replace the entire harness? or is there a way to get the spade out of the there and either solder, or crimp a new one on.

thanks

 

I think you should be able to get a new 3wire connection with a new modual that may not be too expensive, and could be an upgrade as well. The other way would be female spade connectors, as all of those connections are just the male ends in the cap.

 

cool man, thanks. i've been workin on other **** while im tryin to figure this thing out. i had no idea that changing the plugs could be such a bitch!! haha

i think this car has actualy headers instead of manifolds, all that tubage makes for a fun, challenging ride! ha

 

alright..........so after workin on the car all day. checking the fuel pump, checked for spark, worked a little bit on timing, and made sure i was getting fuel to the injectors.....

my car will STILLLLL not start. its turning over, and over, and over....but will never pick up.

anyone have ANY clue?
