Hi Gang it's been a long time. Over the last year and a half 'Black Betty' has been giving me fits with the Ignition system. (1978 CJ5 w/360) I've installed a new Primary Battery (I have a 2nd one for my winch) and I've tried replacing the Starter Solenoid and checking the wiring from it to the E-Coil yes I'm most of the way to the Team Rush upgrade. Since the mods necessary for the Team Rush upgrade I've gone as far as I can save for the Ignition MSD Module box and she was running fine until last year. The distributor has not been altered and the starter spins the motor up fine. I've taken the steps in the DARS chart in the official Jeep TSM and I'm at a loss on how to proceed. If there's any electrical Close up of Coil.webp Close up of Coil wires.webp gurus left here please chime in. Thanks and a lift of the lynch lid.

Yes from last year, perhaps I should try Starting Fluid?
