RE: [Chevelle-List] Ignition woes (Vette, kinda long)

[396guy]

Timing chain slip maybe?   Dale Yesterday I fiddled around with it and got it running by slowly moving the distributor until it fired.  It seemed to be running ok, I even went and got gas.  Sure enough, the movers show up this morning and I go to move the Vette and the damn thing won't start!  It'll turn over forever but it just won't start.  I pulled the #1 plug and checked my timing about a dozen times, I pulled the valve covers and the valve train appears to be working properly, I even went to Autozone and got another distributor just to see if that was the problem, no dice.   This is really irritating considering it was running just fine before the little road trip!   The only other thing I can think of is the ignition switch is bad.  I installed a new one a few years back for some reason (I still have the original).  Even if the ignition switch was bad that wouldn't explain why it died the way it did.   Am I missing something?  Any suggestions?   Thanks guys (and gal)...   cYa-   Herb Lumpp 1966 El Camino ACES #3509 http://web.tampabay.rr.com/herbsworld/index.htm
