WTF- Stranded in Germany

[stock89]

Tmoss and others,

Thank you for all of your knowledge and assistance. I was about to become a SERIOUS alcoholic over this.

One of the previous owners had an alarm installed in the car, and one of the reostats that cut power to the coil (if alarm activated) had failed. The reostat wouldn't let any power thru. Of course it took two hours with a wire digram, tracing and prodding every 6 inches trying to find the cutoff. I honestly didn't even know that this reostat wasn't stock b/c it was buried in the wiring harness so well.

Anyway, it starts. We put whiteout on 10 BTC but timed it so that the whiteout showed in the circle of the timing guage thing on the balancer. It idled good but drove bad across the parking lot (it only drove 30 feet or so). Should've timed it to the blade end huh?

Anyway, if you could tell me whether to time off of the blade or circle that would be wonderful.

Thanks again everyone!!!
