Hey fellow bronco nuts! I just received my new coils and rear leafs from cage and when I went and installed them my steed wouldn't start. This has me very perplexed. Nothing was wrong with it when I last used it on the trail. It acts like its not getting fire. Motor turns over like a champ but no fire even when I add wd 40 to the carb. Please give me good suggestions on what to do or where to start. Lone Star roundup is this coming weekend and I want to show off my new flexing muscles (Cage ones that is).

Many many things it could be... But my number one guess is some oxidation on your points. My boat will never start for the first time in the spring till I sandpaper to the points..

It's amazing what gas can do for a gasoline engine. Found that my fuel pump was struggling so I switched tanks and hello cranking. I guess I just had enough gas to load it on the trailer after my last trail ride. Thanks for all of the help guys. Now on to installing my new Cage offroad springs for the LEBC Roundup. ;D
