Project 1992 Coupe=Christine??
 

Some of ya'll might remember the Stephen King movie...Christine??? Well, the coupe is at a bud's house in his shop. He is installing some bolt on suspension stuff and fuel rails, since I just don't have the space or time.

Anyhoo...the coupe had no distributor, battery disconnected and the keys were in his pocket. He and a friend were sitting across the shop BS'ing and all of a sudden, the coupe tried to start. The motor turned over like 3 times. He looked at the friend he was talking to like WTF? Are we hearing things? Then, the car did it again. He called me, freaking out..saying, "COME GET THIS POSSESSED CAR. I surely thought he was joking, but he and Corey swore and were really shook up about it..LOL

I have no idea how it did it. No battery connected, no keys and the clutch wasn't engaged. I just thought it was funny.:D

uh oh no distributor? doesnt that throw off your timing real bad and make it a pain in the arse to get right?

RE: Project 1992 Coupe=Christine??
 

If there is no distributor in the motor, it is the same to get it timed in no matter where the engine is at. Need to get it #1 tdc no matter what.
