My 75 clipper had starting issues. Happened every time I filled up the tank(s), and randomly in any other situation. No one could make it fail so we never could diagnose the actual issue. However, we switched out the balast resistor several times, then worked our way through all the other components. Finally, we did this Mod. Have to say, it was the best thing I ever did. The spark is strong enough to start through a flooded engine and no more worrying that if I turn off the engine I won't be able to start it back up.
I've never had an issue with the truck not starting. I mean some times it'll take a little longer to start or I'll half to keep my foot on the gas for a minute or so to get it to idle right but it always seems to turn over like a champ so I'm not concerned. Worst case if I kill the battery I have a spare I can resort to if need be. I'm pretty happy with the old 360 all things considered.
Still hard to believe the thing made it on the last trip I put it through, pretty proud of the old beaver.
