From the service manual. Could be a bad resistor I suppose. I have heard of them going out before. If it runs on spray then it must be getting a tach signal to the ECU. Probably a wiring issue if I had to guess.

Welcome aboard! That car has indeed been well loved before you. Great buy! I hear you on the member locator. Unfortunately that hasn't worked in a long time now. Hopefully some members local to you see this.
-
Whatever works for ya! 😎
-
What year is the car? Did this happen all of the sudden or has it been not running? Can you hear the fuel pump run when the key is turned on?
-
I assume you are buying them used? You could always contact Heron at Trilogy Turbo and I'm sure he can hook you up.
-
The cut out could very well be a leaking vacuum advance. Really bad smell of fuel? What do the plugs look like?
-
Said you checked spark, but didn't tell us how you did it. I use an in-line spark tester and it makes life SO much easier. No questions about spark then. Fuel definitely looks good. Seems like it revved fine at one point. Based on that I would mostly rule out mechanical failures and fuel pump. Doesn't even turn over now?? Throw it on a trailer and come on over. We will figure it out 😎
-
Definitely check for spark. Once you know for sure it's spark or fuel related then we can guide you further. When you first turn on the key do you hear the fuel pump kick on for a couple seconds?
-
Sounds electrical. Check for spark in the no start condition. Does it start to run rough before shutting off or is it just like someone turned off the key?
-
Welcome aboard! Looks like a pretty complete car from here. A little work and she will surely shine!

Good deal on those Bridgestone Potenza 245/45r16 https://www.tirerack.com/tires/TireSearchResults.jsp?zip-code=37322&width=245/&ratio=45&diameter=16&rearWidth=225/&rearRatio=50&rearDiameter=16&performance=ALL

SHP or not wheels? I believe 205 was factory in the non SHP fronts. Not 100% sure on that though. It's early and I'm still on coffee #1 Personally I will always run a staggered setup. It came that way, so I keep it that way. Not that there is anything wrong with 225 all around.
-
I debated rolling the car off a cliff instead of re-connecting this the first time Now I run flexible line the whole way. Screw that connection 😊
-
No need to remove extra parts. I'm not sure it would help anyways. Crow's foot or at least line wrenches are mandatory. Getting the hard line back into the top of the steering box is a serious PITA.

Hey I know that guy! Very Cool Randy! So Elliot just let it sit after the rebuild? Was there an issue? And what's the plan now? 🙂
