Re: [T3] Won't Start

I had a similar problem recently that turned out to be the wire to the head
temperature sensor.   If your wires aren't connecting to either of the
temperature sensors it won't fire at all.  Since your car is a 69 this is
even more likely because of the exposed position of the head sensor.  Later
cars had this sensor relocated to the top of the engine.  There is a push
together connector to the left of your distributor that snakes down to the
sensor.  Pull it apart and put an ohmmeter between the harness and the wire
you've just disconnected.  It should read somewhere around 2500 or 3500
Ohms.  If you get zero then that's your problem.
