    Well, it's not my checkbook, but that would seem to be the place to start, Randy! Wish you lived a bit closer, I'd pull the one off my 5.0 and let you try it!

    Well, if I throw enough money at it, it will eventually run, right???

    I guess if we had 2000 miles of coil wire we could test it off of yours.....

    It may be the TFI coil. Known to go bad and cause a no start. '92 Mustangs did use that system. IIRC it is attached to the distributor but it has been a while.
