I looked into it more today and checked the valve springs.....they are fine...may be a valve problem....it cuts out and runs like total junk at a higher rpm.....has a miss then dies altogether....I am yankin the engine out anyway cause I wanna do some things.....forged internals and what not....the choke wiring has the positive red wire and i dont know where it went, there is a choke relay under the coil....there??? or somehwere else?? the dark blue wire i see on the ballast but thats the only place....it must be a diff color at the connection point where all the wires meet in the plastic block....i will post pics when i get the engine back in and I am ready to wire it up....thanks for the help guys...
