1984 4k - no start

Yup in s.NH.

Yeah - so that's my biggest concern. Looking at the quality of the wire
- its not beyond my imagination that any one of them could have a break
in them, anywhere :o

I'll test the hall sensor.
I've also got some 4g wire I can use to replace the ground and possibly
add another.

I am having trouble finding the fuel relay - etka is telling me its on
the main fuse box in the engine compartment. However the map on the lid
of the fuse block doesn't even mention the fuel pump ?? I can feel one
of the relays come on (it actually buzzes more than clicks on) - anyone
know what position the fuel pump relay should be in?

Ben - thanks for the hint on the DPR and the 02. Hall first, then fuel
relay, then ignition controler - as these seem to be related to spark
(or the lack thereof) - of course the grounds as well. Once I finger out
what's going on w/spark - I'll be ready to address poor running - if it
still exists.

Vittorio -

I lost the email, but did you say you are in southern NH?

I'm near the seacoast, and I hate '84 4kqs because they are electrical 
nightmares.

Every connection you ever undo, clean it and add silicone dielectric 
gel.  Then undo every other connection and do the same.
