Hey Guys, I'm about to give up this project, or at least find some mechanic to figure out the problems I'm having. I've done just about everything I can think of and I still can't get it running. Before I was having a problem where I had to run it so rich to get it to idle, now after changing the distributor cap I can't get it to run at all. I'm finding myself doing the same things over and over again. I've touched about everything, tested almost everything (except, obviously the thing that's not working), I'm about out of time, and out of options.

So, if any of you know a mechanic in San Diego (a traveling one would even be better) that you think would be willing to take a look, send an email. I really hate to give up the DIY part, but ah well, I guess my inexperience finally caught me in the end.
