distributor issue

Yep, We have a prime-out. Then afterwards, the only way the pump kicks back on is when it receives a PIP signal.

The dirty way of testing a used dizzy is to connect to spare dizzy to the electrical connector in your car (with the dizzy just sitting on top of the engine). Then turn the key on and then turn the shaft. If you hear buzzing, the PIP would seem to work (at that time anyhow. It might not once hot, etc).
