Default What a Great Diagnostic System

I have an 86 that has a history of not wanting to start. Usually once I try and it fails to start (sometimes it starts on 1st try), then I let it sit for 5 minutes, it will then start. That's the short version!

Yesterday it took 3 or 4 tries and waiting in between to get it started. I drove about 15 miles and it started acting up and quit. I had it towed home. It won't start at all now. Just sputters. I did notice an irratic tach reading for a couple days prior to this event.

Guess what! This issue has never thrown off and "Error Code" and neither has it this time! Great System Eh!
