    Is your air intake above the waterline, is the distributor sealed?

    Seriously though, he is the water guy here. The only thing I can think of is you are getting your connections to the PCM wet and it cannot work then

    He is usually on here every evening. He lives in New Zealand, 8 hours difference in time zones. But you can also find his name in the members list. Just click on Community in the black bar at the top and find the C section and then Cantab27. Click on it and it will take you to his profile page and then you can send him a message. Another way is do a search for V8 Barbie Rebuild. That is his thread
