is my motor junk?!?!?!?!

[marc_scirocco at sympatico.ca (Marc_Scirocco_Québec)]

Or a cracked head between cyl 3 and 4 (or block)?

The only sure way to find out, is to get the head off of the motor.

The distributor thing might be normal, as the FPR senses a pulse from the
distributor, and turns on the fuel pump for a few seconds.

Cheers.
