Ignition help I think?

The pickup wires could be reversed.
Replace the ground wire.
Power and ground wired directly to battery.
If distributor is locked out, check phasing in the cap.

Sorry for your problems.

People have chased what seemed to be ignition problems that turned out to be carburetor or fuel injection problems.

Factory wiring will not let the pickup wires to be reversed.
Ground and positive are directly to battery.

I will check the phase in the cap.
