    My 85 ranger wasn't getting any spark. I put new coil, plug wires distributer cap n rotor and it started right up, ran for 10 mins then died and won't start. I'm thinking the pickup coil inside the distributer. Any other ideas would be appreciated. I hope this works. I will put it in today.

    I am so stoked. I swapped the old carb with the 2100 adjusted the idle mixture screws by ear and it's running better than it ever was with the old one, very happy with this carb for now. Can't wait to put a 352 in it someday. I meant 351 lol
