Ok, Dave Now the question is how did the reluctor go bad or was it just the Pulse coil none original wire.

Not wanting to miss anything external to the distributor, Tom Neiland and I had a couple of very intensive tech sessions at the Long Island New York - DeLorean Motor Club's Evans Court clubhouse in which we did side by side scope readings of my car compared to a know properly working ignition system in his car. We found that there was noise and extra spikes coming out of my distributor. We questioned the green wire I had on mine, wondering if that might be the problem and considered just replacing the wire. Today we removed the distributor and took a better look at the reluctor gaps and decided that, that was most likely the problem. We installed Dave T's dizzy and now all is working well, with No 2700 ohm resistor! So I feel that we have two winners in the contest, both of whom declined the prize and both of whom I owe a BIG thank you and I've promised to take them out for a very nice dinner. It has long been obvious to me that the DeLorean community is a very close one and that we all chip in and help others as we can. Dave Teitlebaum obvious goes above and beyond in this area. He's helped me before and many many other DeLorean owners with his time, knowledge and parts. Thank you Dave Teitlebaum. and thank you to a relatively new DeLorean owner Tom Neiland. Dave Delman D² & 6530 no more 2700 resistor! ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.
