oK I HAVE A 67 MUSTANG THAT I HATE CRANKING ON TO START IT I JUST WANT IT TO START RIGHT UP. SO I PUT A PERTRONIX IGNITOR IN IT BUT IT DID NOT HELP MUCH IF ANY. sO I WANTED TO KNOW WHAT ARE SOME OTHER OPTIONS? LIKE NEW DISTRIBUTOR, BOX, ECT. hOW TO INSTALL OF IT IF ITS HARD OR NOT AND WILL IT GIVE ME THAT QUICK START UP FOR MY 302.

 

well ... stop shouting (caps lock?) ...

i don't think an ignition box will help here.
Check the basics first. what's the initial timing set at, is the idle mixture set correctly?
how does it run when it's warm?
does it happen when cold or hot or both.
do you start it with pedal fully floored, or do you pump?
how long do you usually crank to get it going (hot/cold)

 

Like points, electronic ignition will only work when adjusted just right. We got the points in our six cylinder perfect, and now it starts with a turn of the key. The advantage to electronic ignition is that you'll never have to adjust them again, while points require maintenance.

I agree with kalli. How does your engine run? It may not be starting very well, but how does the engine idle, and how does it drive?

 

Are you referring to a cold start situation or a hot start?

The above members have asked good questions.

It is very hard to flood a cold engine. It is very easy to flood a hot engine. If your problem is with starting a hot engine, one trick that works for me (passed down from good ole' Dad) is to start cranking and if it does not catch within three or four seconds, as you continue to crank, slowly floor the gas pedal. Do this slowly to avoid getting a full squirt from the accelerator pump, and as you reach WOT, you are giving the motor maximum air. This method always results in a running car by the time my pedal has reached the floor.
