Last week my old (1977) Dodge pickup quit in the driveway while I was running into the house for something. I walked back to the farm and finished the project I was doing on my newer truck. the next day I spent all afternoon fiddling and checking, Had fuel for sure, a squirt of ether down the carb, but no spark.

Disconnect coil, flash it with jumper wire, no spark at the end of the coil wire, spark at the coil itself, coil wire tests good, plug it back in park, hook everything back up, and boom, off and running. The only thing I can think of is a poor connection at one of the poins where I disconnected/reconnected something. Now I'm just waiting for it to quit on me again.
