Re: No spark 4ktq project



Hmmm,
	sound like I need to go through and double check all my
connections.  Make sure everything is hooked up the way I TINK it should
be.  Of course, I could be thinking wrong.
	The only wire I added was the wire for the Fuel Pump cutoff.  I
didn't change anything.  I am using the 5kt Relay.  Number on top is like
a 211 or 411.  Dont know PN offhand.  	
	Anyhow, I'll check everything and report back on Saturday.
BTW, do MC and KH use the same relay??  Are the three unused pins ont he
KH used ont he MC harness.  
	Thanks
