My 85 stopped starting
So like it says... I got to the gym this afternoon and everything was working as perfect as the day it rolled off the show room floor... right.
Came out about an hour later and the bish won't start... I can hear the fuel pump cycle, they starter turns, the engine rocks and the car shudders but no start?!?!?! It's like the engine isn't gettin any spark or something. The starter will turn for about half a second and then spin free, when I let off the ignition all you can hear is it winding down, no engine roaring to life... Any help diagnosing this? There's no reason for me to think that anything's gone wrong with the ignition system, and the only problem I've had with this car sine I bought it was the starter stuck on twice, last time about 3 weeks ago and the time before that was about 4 or 5 months before that. Help please! p.s. I've replaced the dist. cap, dizzy, plugs and wires all within 3 months...

check the spout wiring on your dizzy, these things are notorious for bad wiring.

It was a bad starter. Got that thing replaced a long time ago! Thanks for the input though. I did also just get some small things repaired and I'm about to dive in head first to make this car respectable on the track.
