A few years ago, I replaced the original Prestolite system in my 64 GT with one of Dave T-Bow's Mallory units. The car never ran better and it's been a great driver since. That is, until about 3 hours ago when the car just stumbled a bit like it was lacking fuel and just immediately quit. This was the 3rd outing of the year and there were no indications of anything amiss. It cranks fine, but nothing happens. Yes, there is fuel in the carb..
Fortunately, this was the end of the Holiday and there were few cars on the road. A County Police officer even pulled up and kept us company with her flashers going until the tow truck arrived.
Will be out there tomorrow looking things over, but has anyone experienced a failure like this and what were your symptoms? Just looking for hints as everything else on the car is practically new.
Hopefully, if it was caused by a failed optical module, I have spares
thx
