I've checked the timing. This seemes to be good.

Is there any way to check the computer, besides the professional way ??

Bert, you said you connected a good wire to the coil? Ok so you have the coil firing.

Have you made sure your plug wires are in good condition, and that they are secure on the cap and plugs? If the coil is firing, then I'd think there is a problem from there to the plugs.

Don't know about the computer thing for sure, but don't think it would cause the problem you're talking about (of course I could be wrong....)
