FastLane has the kit, about $100. New keyswitch, relay, and pencil type GP with the larger base of the series type.

Takes about 60 sec to get the indicator up to full temp. You have to sit there and pull, there isn't really any way to speed this up short of putting in pencil type parallel plugs.

If the indicator loop only gets red, not orange, take the wires off the GP and clean them up, you have too much resistance. DO NOT replace the links with plain wire, you will burn the GP out, the system is designed to have 6 resistors and one indicator in it. On four cylinder engines, you have two "zigzag" resistor links (these get red hot) and one straight link. On the five cylinder there is only one resistor link. I suppose on a six (never installed in a passenger car, but I'd bet there are truck engines out there with six cylinders) there would be no resistor links.

Late injection timing will also make it hard to start -- check chain stretch and injection timing (replace the chain if 8 degrees or more stretch before fiddling with the timing) and correct if necesary -- should fire right up.
