There are multiple threads describing symptoms of a bad ignitor, so I know that's what I need to replace.
AutoZone just called, they have the part in.
But in the car, how do I find the ignitor to replace it? Is it inside the distributor? Attached?
Just checked index of both Chiltons and Haynes, neither one has "ignitor". And none of the threads I found here show a picture.
Thanks, guys.
And... if this fixes my problem, I'm going to try to do a post that describes the symptoms and fix for a bad ignitor as clearly as possible, because I see a decent number of members here went round and round on this one, with [well meaning] suggestions all over the map... and the end they say "fixed it... it was the ignitor"... where if they knew what I know now, they could have saved themselves some time and headache.
