Hey guys , I inherited a 86 colt vista g63b SOHC carb manual trans 4x4 ( I know not a sweet little pickup ) but having a hard time finding info on on replacement parts . Thought you guys may have some insight on these motors . Not many people out there restoring vistas lol. Sat for 10 + yrs with bad head gasket . 33k original miles . I Replaced gaskets, machined head , new timing belt , water pump , tensioners . Rebuilt carb flushed tank and replaced fuel lines . All vacuum lines checked and replaced if needed . Got it all timed/tuned up and running good . The problem - runs great then looses spark once warm / hot . After cool down restarts/ runs good until heat returns. It dies like running out of fuel but fuel pressures all check out . When it is in a no start/ hot state I have no signal coming from distributor to condenser ? On the coil . Tested with test light cranking over Motor w clutch in . Icm in distributor ? Local parts stores can’t find replacement distributor and replacement icm is 208 bucks( and it doesn’t look right compared to the one in my distributor) . Any ideas where to get good aftermarket distributor ? Am I completely confused as to what’s going on with this thing ? I feel like I’m close but still missing something. Never been to savy with electric systems. Thanks
