the distributor module, the harness plugs into it

do you know where the inertia switch is ????

it's in the trunk/hatch there is a reset button so if you get @ss-ended it will shut off the fuel

check the harness for that wiggle it around and make sure it's tight, and hit that reset button...if that part goes bad you can have intermittent fp probs....i did

as a rig-job, you might be able to bypass that switch and be fine

yeah i checked that switch thats all fine i can jump the pump in the car and make it pump. im not so worried about the fuel pump i can make that work if i have to my real problem i guess is getting spark. this dizzy thing is what im leaning to. i have power to the distributor at the harness. i guess what i want to kow is if the dis. could also control when the pump comes on throgh that dizzy switch.
