Thanks Chris, Mike and Lane, and the tow truck driver to. He did a good job.

I already had the trouble shooting paper from the MSD web site printed out from a while back. I didn't want to mess with it as soon as we got home, so Danette and I went out to lunch since we were starving. When we got back, I read through the trouble shooting guide and basically it said to try the same thing we were dong on the side of the road to see if the coil or box was bad. So I did a quick check of the coil wire again to make sure it was good. AOkay. Put a screw driver in the distributor end of the coil wire (just like we did on the side of the road) and jump the magnetic pick up wire from the box. WOW, I have a good spark every time I jump it. WTF. So I hook everything back up and figure I would try to start it. WTF, it started right up. Happy that it did, but now I have to find the ghost that caused it. Could be a loose wire somewhere, don't think it would be the ignition switch as every time we tried it it turned over fine. At this point I don't think it would be the MSD box either as the tech told me a while back, it works or it doesn't.

PS: Danette and Scott's car karma strikes again!
