mechanic drove out to it and checked things out. he's convinced it's the pick up assembly in the distributor or the ignition control module after some testing. how likely are these things? ordered the pick up, will be here on wednesday, hopefully that does it. if not, i've got a possible WTB posted in the classifieds for a ignition control module out of a junker (no junk yards in upstate NY). anyone have any leads on that?
