Timing issues

Not sure myself but since you flicked the key switch and things worked ok and the switch does activate the ignition circuit I would think about changing the switch for starters. Also check all your grounds to make sure nothing is loose. Where is thunderbolt when you need him .. LOL

Hmmm...  

Grabber, thunderbolt sent me a message on the blog....snuck it by ya!! lol

I have changed all the wiring associated with the steering column and no change but its so intermittent i cant track it down so that why I made a video to show around. all the starter wires (including ground) has been upgraded to new and bigger gauge.

Ok you said you changed all the wiring in the column but I was thinking more of the switch itself or did you change that as well?

no, key switch is the same and after reading your post again i get what ya said...doesn't it seem kinda odd that it may or may not work the first time, but just flick the switch and it corrects EVERY single time? I tend to think that even flicking would not correct it occasionally if it was the key switch but i dont know for sure.... pisses me off to no end though I do know that!!!

hey guys, if anyone has a idea whats going on, please post to the blog on the subject.....heres the link. Thanks
