ok guys i picked up a 83 200e last night...got it for $100...the guy said it had lost spark..so today i went thrue
the wiring and i matched all the colors together(that is the correct way to do it right?) anyway i felt it maybe
the coil causing the problem so i took a old 350x coil i had here and put on it and it then fire on the 3rd pull..
it ran about 10 seconds and died...it then fired right back up and ran about 30 second and ran perfect so i
shut it off pulled it out of the bed of the truck to test drive it and now nothing...it wont do anything...i pulled
the plug after it got dark and i see no fire at all...would useing the 350x coil cause this? did i possable burn
something out by doing this? thanks guys for any input
