To All;

I wanted to take this opportunity to THANK
everyone who 
helped me with my problem concerning non-starting
of my 72 TR 6.

For those who did not see the orginal it is included
below.  

I wanted to tell all of you that the car was finally
put back together with all the same components that
it had before and it did start.

Now the task is much easier, as the components will be
swapped out each one until the bad one is found.

This will make the whole job a lot easier,
but I wanted to say a BIG THANKS to all of you
for the help.
