I don’t think so. I have looked over car never touch anything or install anything radio,amp, alarm . I’ll look at grounds clean them but dought it. Still won’t hurt to look. Might take 30 min of my time.

Probably not going to be fun to track down.
The reality is that it would be easier to fix if it was plain old broken.
Like at night, darkened garage, open door of courseHow can I see it in the dark for the coil?
Keep in mind vibrations cause things to come loose, especially if your car is LOUD, like mineI don’t think so. I have looked over car never touch anything or install anything radio,amp, alarm . I’ll look at grounds clean them but dought it. Still won’t hurt to look. Might take 30 min of my time.
I do have a line spark tester if that’s what ur talking about & it does spark. Unless you mean removing the connector from the starter solonid key on hold it to metal/block and crank it with screwdriver. Is that what ur referring to brother?Like at night, darkened garage, open door of course
The thing is that you are looking for something that will cause a brief momentary complete engine shutdown (if i'm reading right).I don’t think so.

I don't think anything fuel related would do it. I could see it running bad, but not killing the engine.
I feel like a bad coil wire or coil would either cause a miss or not work at all once hot.
You tried a new distributor and TFI that rules them out.
One more question of the tester. I know it tested the tfi does it test the pip as well or just tfi?Actually you have to unplug the tfi from the distributor because you need to probe the 3rd prong you will see in the instructions. Don't forget to buy a 9volt battery.
thanks buddy nice to hear from youOpen hood, start engine, turn off all lights, you have to do this at night, look for sparks jumping from plug wires around the cap, at the plugs, between the wires ect. The spark will look like when you take a screwdriver to check spark at the plug wire. Most times you can hear a snapping sound as the spark jumps to ground.
or you could get a buddy to run their fingers across the plug wires, doesn't prove anything but it's kinda fun watching them jump aroundOne more question of the tester. I know it tested the tfi does it test the pip as well or just tfi?

Brother I did why you said right now and I see a little bit of light flickering around spark plug #1 right where plug meets with plug. Actually around the spark plug where meets with boot. I also see a occasionall filkering and plug wire 8 it’s about 1 inch somewhere j the middle of wire. What does this mean? Is the spark plug bad in #1? Wire bad on 8?One more question of the tester. I know it tested the tfi does it test the pip as well or just tfi?
thanks buddy nice to hear from you
Can that little bit of blue really cause the car to shut off?Plug wires.
no it does not test the pip, only the TFI.One more question of the tester. I know it tested the tfi does it test the pip as well or just tfi?
