I just now checked the gap with a business card as you suggested. It seemed a little loose but not much. I set it and cleaned the tip of the rotor. It might take as much as 2 weeks before I know if the problem is solved as most of the time it has been starting but not always. As for the wiring and bulkhead.....they are all brand new. I installed all new when I restored the car. I only have 2100 miles on the restoration, so the bulkhead should be good.
