All,
I recently acquired an '89 Grand Wagoneer and are working on figuring out what the PO did to it, other than eliminating some of smog controls and replace 2bbl with 4bbl Edlebrock carb it looks fairly stock.
Before buying it I was able to get it running and drove it onto my auto hauler. Once I got it home I immediately replaced oil/filter, oil pump, oil pan, AT pan and AT filter and AT pan before attempting to run it for any duration to see what other issues it had. On several occasions I coudl get it running wit the help of starting fluid; however now I cannot get her running
So I replaced all plugs and as well as the coil (the PO had an Accel Super Coil on it), had the ICM tested, which revealed a bad ICM, so I replace that as well. After that I was able to get it running on two additional occasions, but now I back to now power to spark plugs.
My concern here could be that maybe the Super Coil is too strong for the ICM and is burning it up. Could this be the case, as it does not look like a Super Coil was stock in '89.
Any thoughts?
