                  disconnected the wire leading from the battery cutoff
                  switch to the coil. * bypassed the entire battery
                  cutoff switch * replaced the Pertronix with a new one 
                  * checked all the sparkplug wires to make sure they
                  were on properly  *  replaced the distributor rotor
                  *Replaced the distributor cap . * checked the small
