Re: Left key in "on" position overnight - no start now

Some of the cheaper high-energy distribs will fry if you leave the key on. This happened to me with a Skip White unit. Cost me $50 to replace it( the whole distributor because the cap and rotor were also melted in addition to the electronics), but actually I guess that is cheaper than a new battery. Fried a pertronix conversion once too that way. Lesson learned though AGAIN.
Glad you got it going.
