Hmm,1st thing I should start with is getting some jy coils and ground the tach wire and see if I can replicate the problem,if it doesn't ill have to work from there.from some quick reading could be dizzy isn't grounded or to many volts to the coil

I would shy away from distructive testing.

Troy, do you have a part number for the rear axle brake hoses from caliper to hard line?  Seemed like the perfect length...

This thing pissed me off last night. Finished roof cage work then pulled it ahead to install rear solid cover that's been sitting for 6 months, go to start it up to back in and no start, figured I ran it out of gas went and got a couple gallons still no start, an hour later determined but came loose on power dist block and fired right up

Skinny on this weekend, good 2 days of wheeling little issues like loose cooler line drained Trans to the point forward momentum was stopped, nut off the + side of volt meter fell off and falling wire arched on engine temp sender and melted in half, increase of nitro in front shocks caused the ujoint to self clearance till caps said goodbye, rear hubs are leaky leaky, dirty fuel filter caused some issues
This thing is now known as the Troy machine

new gauges and some spare parts ordered
talk of big dogs main jambo was talked about
to do list before main jambo:
fix front and rear pinion angles
tree bars
%100 cage work
better tool and part storage
better tire tie down
more oil/tranny pan protection.
missing anything?
