95 90q no spark, wiring assistance please

[brian hoeft]

Welp, just want to share the latest with Laverne (this merciless '95 90q)

After about 2 years of sitting with lack of motivation on the owners
behalf, due to a snapped t-belt that failed while running on a bad clutch,
while running on a TOTALLY rebuilt suspension,, Laverne finally roared to
life after splicing in a new wire between the POS and ECU.

What makes the story more special than the re-birth of his dearly beloved
(dumb love) Laverne, is that early this very same morning, he also became
an official father of a 6.4oz human boy child.

Serendipity? Quite possibly, and I'll revel in the moment just the same.

Now to button her up and deal with the other thousand problems...
