[DML] Re: Engine twinge.

["Harold McElraft" <hmcelraft@xxxxxxx>]

With only this description - it sounds electrical. Probably a 
connection. Check connections on the resistor block (check them all 
along the supply). Check all of the grounds to the engine including the 
engine strap at the motor mount. Check connections at the coil (check 
the coil wire too - is it seated completely?) and the distributor feed 
to the engine module. You might also check the ground at the engine 
module - be sure it is tight. How about the electrical charge? Battery 
up, etc. I assume you did a regular start, not a jump start and the 
alternator is working ok.
