Getting the Wheeling Fever
looking for a little help here. While driving my '86 along through the neighborhood running @30-35mph in third gear, I will occassionally get my trouble light to come on. Checkin the code it's a 6 which is rpm signal (crank angle pulse). No Ne signal to ECU within cranking, or Ne value being over 1000 rpm in spite of no Ne signal to ECU. Says to check 1. igniter circuit, 2. Igniter 3. Distributor 4. ECU. Why would this only happen at this speed, rpm? 2nd.. I do know my dist. pick-up ohms out higher than spec'd values.. This ones got me scratchin' my head <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Replace pickup, clear codes, problem solved.

Why at those speeds and rpms? The harder you press the gas, the more voltage goes through your coil. The rpms don't matter much. With your speed and gear selection at 35 you are running a very light load, and the higher resistance in your pickup becomes a problem.

anyone know of a good source for a distributor (ignitor) pickup? The dealer wants a fortune for these.

Body Damage is Cool
I've got a spare distributor if you wanna borrow it to test with. You gotta come to Surprise to get it though. Give me a PM if you want it.
