I troll around and read a lot of thread here and the info is extremely helpful. I've solved more than a few problems here.
Anyway, My wife's 65 Belvedere wagon (the Creep Wagon as she calls it) is completely stock 273/auto. I just did the standard Mancini racing electronic ignition conversion. Having starting issues. Sometimes it starts right up, other times no spark. I've replaced all electrical components under the hood, coil, ballast, relay, even cleaned and replaced terminals on bulkhead. Made sure everything is grounded etc.
Battery shows 12+ volts easily. Going into the ballast resistor is 10+volts. Coming out of ballast is just under 5 volts. (4.6-4.8) Same going into the coil.
I read here that the Wells voltage regulator VR706 is better. Anything else needed for upgrade? I got it running I just want long term reliability (Read wife's car and I don't want any calls that she's stuck at the beach etc etc...) Thanks for any help.
