[DML] Re: Took car out on first drive in 1 1/2 years, not without problems, though

What you describe is usually a symptom of inadequate or improper 
spark. If that is your problem for sure it is hard to say. I assume 
it revved fine before all the maintenance and modifications.

I would be suspicious of the vacuum line routing, spark timing, and 
the resistor for the coil. If the resistor is incorrect, as in too 
much, the spark will not be strong enough. That is what it sounds 
like - under load the engine needs a strong spark and the light is 
going out.
