Always seems to be something.
Finally, after more years than one can imagine, I was looking forward to actually DRIVING my car today. I really was. Of course, it now won't start, and I can't fault it.
There seems to be spark (pull a plug, crank engine, plug sparks), and there's definitely fuel.
If I follow the MSD instructions, and jump the green and violet wires, removal of the 'jump' will create a spark at the coil wire.
If I've ever had a 'no start' issue, it's been to do with a lack of either fuel or spark. This time I have both, so I'm lost...... And ready to hit it with a hammer. A large hammer.

Where to from here?
