Ignition problems

[Hoopy_boy]

  I never ran the cover on the rear of the engine. Didn't have any issue with rocks or debris etc.. hindering operation, over the years. Before I washed the car I would stick 3 strips of duct tape together side by side and cover it though...
Honey-do list before the race car. That sounds serious !! (LOL)

Update: I took the engine out and began to take the blue plate off. I noticed that the gaps between the rotor and two pick ups were a little different and it looked like one had been rubbing. I changed the plate and spent a decen amount of time re-timing it. I fired it and it seemed to run great on jack stands. I am taking it to the track this week to test it. Thanks for the help guys!
