Thanks for the replies fellas! First off she's a running and purring like a kitten! I did not really do anything mechanical. I pulled off the distributor cap and all looked pretty new inside, no frayed wire and pretty clean. It leads me to believe the gentleman that had it before me probably had it tuned up. I will go through the paperwork again. I also pulled all the spark plug wires from the cap and plugs to inspect and put them back. Seemed pretty clean also. I unbolted and repositioned all the pertinent contacts for ignition system - I will clean them all this week, which leads me to another question, all the points of contact have multiple washers in them including the ground. Is this normal?
I also plan on repairing the wire going into the coil from the harness that goes to the generator. It is horribly frayed and insulation is damaged. I am planning on cutting and stripping it back at a point where it is undamaged and slicing on a new piece. I also plan on doing this to the starter solenoid wire as it is pretty bad too. Fuel is coming in and I have her running on no ethanol gas.
Is there a simple way for a simpleton to check or test the generator? I used a multimeter (something else new to me) and it is showing 6.3 volts cold/off, 6.3 volts running, 6.08 volts running with lights on, 6.05 volts with lights on and car off for 5 minutes. Started her again and got 6.2 volts after a few minutes of running and then 6.28 volts after 30 minutes of being off/cold.
Any other tips or tricks will be appreciated!!!
