> have you checked the other wires for spark from dist to plug, if you do i dont know im thinking if you have stock airbox or something, a animal might of crawled up that and died, and is plugging air.

lol nice idea, but I tried disconnecting the the airbox piping from the throttle body, and tried starting it using throttle body cleaner, didn’t work.

I’m still pretty certain the distributor cap isn’t close enough to the rotor or something of that sort…It leaves me stumped considering that it started for half a second before stalling. W.T.F.
