Jack,

Engine runs... poorly. Lots off missing and backfiring. Took a while to get running again. Maybe it was flooded.

Is there a way to re-wire the oil sensor to a buzzer or a dummy light? As you know my wire harness is a rats nest.

Unfortunately Mazda ate my check. Of course both cars ended up taking a chit at the same time. 

I'm due for a tune up, going to do new plugs, wires, points, condenser, cap, rotor once I get the money.

Bus started Missing and backfiring as I tried to pass someone on the way to Firefly. Joel told me I'll be ok. I checked the wires when I got there, but nothing seemed worse than normal.

I was planning on doing an engine pull this winter if there isn't anybody else in line for an overhaul. New windshield seal, oil seals, fuel pump cover, filler hose replacement, fix lines, and new engine seal.

Thanks Muggie! Tyler keeps pushing me to do the over haul at his place, but Shawn will have all of the tools we need.

Petronix installed, runs like it did before it took a chit. Maybe better. Yucel is coming over soon to help me with aligning the exhaust.

I would like to point out that Greg installed the Pertronix himself.
