teh' weasel's 7 is back!

She's alive once again...glad I didn't scrap her, plus I don't have to drive around a 04 Pontiac Grand Am anymore, bleah.
To the members who suggested it was the ignitors etc, you were correct
The msd blaster coils french fried both the leading and trailing, I needed 2 ignitors, swapped distributor, and the timing redone: it was so far off...how far off? well the marks on the pulley couldn't be seen with the timing gun, they were hanging out on the underside..so she is squared away for now and has some much appreciated newfound power...
teh seven can't lose

I was just wondering what happened to you the other day.

As soon as the weather clears, rotary meets are on again.
