I have changed everything in the ignition sytem except for the dirtributor itself. Sometimes the car just does not want to start. It usually happens when it has been sitting overnite and it is a little cold. It has become a real pain. Once it starts, then everything seems fine, but sometimes in the morning <NO DICE> please help

Mike,
Is this problem on the 71 Charger?
Have you checked to be sure you are getting fuel?
Could the carburetor be leaking down over night?
Choke working?

Just a few thoughts.
Let me know how you make out

Rich

It sounds like the carb is drying out, overnight.
