Jeffs GTV no start....



Jeff, before you buy a new coil you might want to check and make sure the 
lead from the coil to the dist. is on good. You might even want to take 
it off the coil, spread the clip out a little, then reapply to the coil. 
This time REALLY making sure its connected. Even a slightly dodgey 
connection here can give you major fits, stumbles and hard starting. 
Happened to....a friend of mine....  Anyhow, worth a check before you 
dump money man\ybe unnecessarily. Keep your hands in your pockets as much 
as possible though! LOL I am a veteran of 4 winters in Rochester NY! 
Spent my college days there....

Regards,

Adam

PS: Also worthwhile to check the fuel return line when you move the AFM 
flap, this will tell you if the fuel is at least getting to the 
injectors. The hose should jump a little, when you move the flap, due to 
the jump in fuel pressure. Also, maybe heck the plugs to see if they're wet.
