Why would it NOT fire, if I put it to the floor I can kill the engine, but will fire right back up, if I let off it'll continue to run? What would account for them to not spark other than ig/coil, and distributor, nothing I can think of. AAGGGHHHHH!!! What ignitors can substitue for the gze one and what mods need to be done to accomadate such. I have a bunch of n/a stuff, I know they are not interchangable or are they?........Also can the knock sensor cause them to not fire? Thanks again guys. Will a age n/a distr and coil/ig run the gze?
Interesting...

If you think it's the knock sensor, then following the idea above, maybe hook up an electrical tester and see what's happening with the knock sensor during the cut out
