OK, NO time to get into it heavy today ( no im not on a date) All i had time today to do was pull back carpet slightly and the WHITE BUTTON on INERTIA switch actually CLICKED when i pushed down, i hvnt checked for 12 volts at fuel relay, B4 this either.... Ive got RUN n COIL voltage at TPI connector, didnt get to CRANK voltage Also the OHMS is GOOD on COIL, i PULLED the secondary wire tab... used a test light, it LIT up cranking....., but couldnt tell if it was FLASHING...( pulled secondary tab OFF the coil n read that directly, maybe wrong?) anyhoo, ill try n crank tomorrow, gotta fuel press gauge for troubleshooting on way, did i say how MUCH i miss driving the Bronco II ?? Its my main ride man! :)

FINALLY got warm weather n stuffed the MOTORCRAFT TFI module in HOLY SMOKES! It really feels like i gain 100 HP, it JUMPS N TAKES OFF NOW like a bulldog in heat!! $168.00 set back but WELL worth it. IT LOOKS to be a Delphi which is ruffly $20 less B4 taxes on evilbay, NO motorcraft insignia BUT they did throw it in a Motorcraft box, how lovely, FWIW IT ROCKS NOW! :) HIGHLY recommended over the AutoZone Oreilley, and Advance CHEAP counterpart..
