I have a 77CJ5 that has the 232 in it.The PO installed a new Distributor.I was looking at the two wires that come off the dist. and go to the ignition box on firewall.They are two wires indiv. wrapped but molded together.
OK,the wire has been spliced about halfway to the ign. box.Each wire is just twisted to the other and bare.If I touch one wire while leaning against the body nothing happens.If I touch the other wire where bare it will die.If I touch the same wire that dies while not touching the body it revs up and runs much better.
I explained as best as I can.Does anyone have a clue what needs done.Could the splice be causing trouble with spark...
Any ideas would be appreciated.Thanks,Daniel
