Hello,
Today after getting my tires mounted I tried to start my truck but nothing happened. The first time I had to try for about 10 minutes and ended up having to pour a little gas in the carb to get it to start.

Couple of hours later, same problem. Little starting fluid, nothing. Checked carb and it was getting gas/air. Put a tester on spark plugs...not getting any power while trying to start. I'm guessing the distributor is not getting power? It got dark so I had to pack up but what wires should I test?

Thanks
