Thanks for the input and we'll stay in touch--Michael

Hi Michael,
100's do have the master switch grounding wire to the master switch so it m=
ight well be worth checking.The symptoms sound very similar to those I enco=
untered with a faulty coil. Mine would run for about 30 minutes fairly cons=
istently before suddenly dying.=20
Even when the engine would not start the bad coil still produced a signific=
ant spark each time the open points were shorted with a screwdriver which I=
 at the time, mistakenly,  felt confirmed that the coil was actually okay .=
.. it wasn't.
I was only able to confirm that the villain was in fact the coil by install=

ndenser which was confirmed by spraying it sparingly with ether to cool it =
down and then finding that the engine started immediately.As I'm sure you a=
re aware a fuel delivery problem never causes the engine to stop dead ... i=
t typically sort of peters out!!
 I would recommend trying the condenser trick and then, if a regular coil c=
an be used as a substitute for the Mallory try a substitution.

I wonder where the term "peters out" comes from ... Google time.

Subject: [Healeys] Car dies suddenly Yesterday morning I went out for a dri=
ve and after about five miles the car suddenly died. There was no rough run=
ning, sputtering or missing leading up to it=E2=80=94the car simply died. I=
 coasted to the side of the road and after about 30 seconds since the key w=
as still on I pushed the start button. To my surprise the car started immed=
iately, revved freely and idled smoothly. A bit perplexed I decided to driv=
e on to see what would happen now that I was paying close attention. The ca=
r accelerated smoothly and ran fine for about 1/2 mile and then it died aga=
in in the same manner as earlier. I shut off the key, popped the hood and e=
xamined the ignition system. Everything seemed fine=E2=80=94all spark plug =
leads were firmly in place as was the lead from the coil to the distributor=
. The power wires to the coil were tight and the harness/connector to the d=
istributor (see below) seemed fine.


After scratching my head for a couple of minutes I got in the car, turned o=
n the ignition and pushed the start button. Again, the car started right up=
 and ran normally. With fingers crossed I headed for my shop/garage, about =
ten miles away and got there without any further event. Though the problem =
did not seem to be fuel related I decided to verify that this was not a fue=
l delivery issue. I have a double-headed SU fuel pump wired to a switch mou=
nted just behind the driver=E2=80=99s seat which allows me to switch betwee=
n pumps as well as turn the fuel pump off. While I was running the car at h=
ighway speeds it ran perfectly on either pump and when I selected the =E2=
=80=9Coff=E2=80=9D position it slowly lost power as I expected it to=E2=80=
=94but in no way like it had suddenly twice died 15 or so minutes earlier. =
This indicated I was not dealing with a fuel issue but rather something rel=
ated either to the ignition system or to the primary wires that run to it.=
=20


This morning I dove a bit deeper to try and diagnose the problem. The car h=
as a Mallory Unilite ignition system tied to an MSD coil which has been in =
place and performed faultlessly for a number of years. I removed the distri=
butor cap and everything appears to be okay, at least visually. The interio=
r of the distributor was clean and dry as was the cap, leads, carbon contac=
t, optical reader, etc. Mallory specifies the use of a ballast resistor in =
the lead from the power source to the coil and with the engine fast-idling =
I tested 12.5 VDC to the resistor and about 5.5-6 VDC out of it and at the =
positive coil terminal.=20


I have a large low-oil pressure light that is mounted in the dash in place =
of the original overdrive switch. It is wired from the ignition switch thro=
ugh a 10 psi normally-closed switch mounted in the oil pressure gauge sende=
r line and then to the light. I point this out because both times when the =
engine shut down yesterday the light immediately came on, from which I conc=
lude that the ignition switch itself is not the source of the problem. And =
though I did not remove the ignition key switch the wires to and from it se=
em tight and intact.


So my question is: What do I do? I hate to throw parts at it without findin=
g something that appears to be defective but I don=E2=80=99t know where to =
start any further tests, etc. I also don=E2=80=99t want to simply wait for =
the issue to happen again. BTW over the weekend I drove about 150 miles wit=
h no issues whatever. Beyond installing four new plugs last week I have not=
 performed any work related to the ignition system. All suggestions/questio=
ns welcome=E2=80=A6. Best--Michael Oritt, BN1______________________________=

 something that appears to be defective but I don=E2=80=99t know where to s=

he issue to happen again. BTW over the weekend I drove about 150 miles with=
 no issues whatever. Beyond installing four new plugs last week I have not =
performed any work related to the ignition system. All suggestions/question=
