I drove my '69 Spider into the garage last week to install a new radiator.
Now it won't start. Right after the install, it started and ran for a
couple of minutes, then cutoff. Then it almost fired up a couple of times. So,
I
began checking the wiring from the coil to the distributor. I cleaned
connections, checked continuity and even replaced the coil with a new one. In
checking for spark, I noticed that I would get an occasional spark upon
cranking the engine, but very intermittently or not at all. I did not change
the factory ballast on coil mount. The spark plug wires are almost new, and I
checked the spark plug gap. Any ideas or suggestion what the problem might
be?
