Hey folks, after putting new plugs, points, rotor & spark plug wires my
'74 TR 6 is still sputtering - like never before!
I did pull the four plugs closest to the firewall and inspected them and
saw black soot - or whatever.  I guess that would be natural since the
thing is mis-fireing.
        Someone mentioned replacing the distributor cap & coil.  Beyond this
what is next?
Oh yes, the ignition switch is acting up again.  Thirty trys without
success, I blew compressed air into the keyhole and it started.   Next
day, no fire - then I let it set for four days came out turned the key
and boom, it goes.  Good thing it isn't a fire truck,,,only the Exon
Valdez!!
