my truck was quiting it doesent get any fire and i put a new distributor on it and it ran fine but i didnt have the tach hooked up. When i hooked the tach back up it did it all over again, could the tach be grounding out and burning my distributor up?

Hi there,

I would certainly be concerned that the tac is your problem, best to get an Auto electrician to test the tac and wiring,
