Re: opti spark

If it has spark why do you thing it's the opti-spark?

Re: opti spark

You're not getting something. If it has fuel and spark you'll hear it. It won't sound like a dead crank

Re: opti spark

Are the rockers properly adjusted? Is the coil good? My coil went out in the middle of my heads/cam swap for no reason.

Re: opti spark

Have you considered having it scanned for codes? Lss of low res pulse pattern from the Opti will shut down the fuel system, causing non-start. I'd give you the codes, but you didn't bother to post any info about your car.... not all LT1's are the same, particularly the codes.

Suggestions:

1. Add a signature with basic info about your car - year, tranny, major mods, etc.

2. Post once, use "reply" when people respond. If you can't find your post, its probably slipped down a couple of pages. Click on the "search" button, put your screen name in the correct field, and it will find your posts for you.
