</>Okay, so I'm working on my cousin's 72 Delta 88 , he drove it to my house but after the second day I've been unable to get it started again. I've checked the plugs and wires, put the wires into harnesses, replaced the coil, static timed it, and STILL can't get the sucker to fire up. The couple times it's caught it pops back crazy loud, I just can't figure out why. It's definitely getting gas, and when I pump the accelerator it acts like it almost wants to fire, but doesn't. Anybody have any ideas as to what I'm looking at here?

Change the condenser check the points also. The short pigtail lead that carries power from outside dist to plate where points are mounted can break internally and cause loss of power to points can work some times not a uncommon problem on cars with points

Definetly sounds like a timing issue. Dwell set to 30degrees? Valve sticking? Does it pop back through the carb? Did it run when it came to you?
