With the length of a Dane's stride they can put distance between you fast! He must have known I ordered him his own invisible fence collar about a half-house prior. The positive was he headed back HOME. He's already taking ownership and guarding when he notices any sound or activity outside.

Tomorrow we'll see if they'll be good "shop" dogs.
Sounds like he is adjusting nicely

The best thing about a Great Dane is they typically make people crap themselves, lol. For that reason alone they make good guard dogs. Their bark is typically very intimidating as well.

My friends had three pit bull mixes, they were actually very nice dogs with the one being very timid. Anyway, they didn't lock the door to their house. The dogs liked sleeping on the couch during the day which was in full view of anyone on the porch approaching the front door.

Took him to the country club today and walked him up to the front doors of the pro-shop......that was worth a lot of attention and conversation. His head out the truck window draws a few looks too. They have such a WOW factor due to their size........fact is I wouldn't want to sneak up on Tucker in the house and yell BOO because I think he'd crap himself.......big scaredy dog.

Thought I might have found something with the bulkhead connection. Spades looked like they might not have been correctly aligned. Realigned them and cautiously connected it.

Nadda.......

So I've.......triple checked TDC, rotor & crank position, distributor wiring, plug wiring, power to the both sides of the coil with key in run position, fuses all look good.

With the key in the run position and power to coil eliminates the need to test with a jumper from battery to coil right?

Possible poor core support ground due to lack of fenders effecting voltage regulator shouldn't be an issue should it?

Could it possibly be a bad coil or distributor?

Correct.


Sorry it's not firing still. I'm out of ideas without being there.
