Yes... our car in the video did eventually start back a few days after this video was shot. It took a few days though. I guess where it was not getting power at that time it was flooded. It did finally start and would idle for 10 minutes, but as soon as you pressed the gas down, it would start missing and stalled out. New coil was installed and never anymore problems... so far. We were also told to check things like the fuel pump, fuel pressure, spark and the FPR by bypassing it and all checked out OK. You may want to try the simple things first before replacing the coil. Like I said dad tested ours with the coil off of my 72 Chevy Caprice station wagon.... dont know how, but he did.
Now we have a leaking EHA valve and had to order another one. Hopefully getting this car back on the road soon.
