Good advise thanks. FYI i have been using the XR3000 for quite awhile 10+ yrs without the resister. The process of illumination lead me to maybe the Coil so Ill replace it and make no other changes and seen if it shows up again. The 1.5 ohm will ne here Saturday,

40111 is the epoxy 1.5 ohm. Thanks I order it to.

I have a PerTronix 40611 arriving today. Drove the car yesterday on two 10 mile trips with no issues. Are you suggesting the 1.5 ohm would be preferred over 3 ohm?

@SteveJthank you good info. Enjoy the 4th.

No

Think pickup a new one just to be sure. I see Fireball must not be producing them any more. Any suggestions?

@Zed HeadYep I knew that. But thanks.

@SteveJ thanks for your reply. Yesterday I was a returning home, a 30 mile drive at freeway speeds 70-75. Stopped for gas, fill-up tank, started up and headed the 2 mi home. About 3 blks from home it simply died. Turned over but wouldnt start. By the time i went back to get it (couple hours +/-) it started and ran rough (like the plugs were fouled) for 10-15 sec and then was fine. Your rely kind of fit my thoughts of "heat related". That coil could be 15+ years old.

What are the symptoms of a Bad coil? I am running a Fireball PS30 along with a Crane XR3000 and Crane points replacement.

I have agree with @dutchzcarguy some. I recently was helping a local owner he drove my car then said wish mine ran this well. I drove his it just seem sluggish. I had him do a valve adjustment and he discovered that he had low compression on two cylinders. So he pulled the head and found the head had a crack and bent valves. They were not closing all the way. So if you haven’t, test compression, adjust the valves, test compression again if needed, check distributor ignition system, check timing, check for plugged filter, check for vacuum leaks, check fuel pressure, unhook all of the throttl

Sent you a PM on a different subject. Don

View Advert New MOMO steering wheel Recently I have been experimenting with different style steering wheels This I’d a MOMO Prototipo which I purchased a couple months ago. As much as I like this one I didn’t think it fit the current version of my Z. I have moved on to Wood Nardi wheel. This has been mounted and removed a couple of time. Leather wrap is in new condition. Advertiser 7tooZ Date 04/25/2021 Price $175.00
