Wow....all that on a MONDAY morning.....but you survived.

 

Check the distributor cap.

 

I hear those are really hard to find on a 97 disco

 

Damn, I thought I saw 95, oh well.

 

Only 3 blocks Danny, I's put it in neutral and tow it home with another car.

 

Let SWMBO push while you steer.... or charge up battery with jumper cables and put it back in.

 

Oh Man! Thanks everyone- LMAO ROFL....... Ouch..... ouch. Danny- ignition switch/fuses, etc.?

 

danny, if youve got spark AND fuel,.....did the cap possibly fall off that you capped the vac port with....????

 

sorry bro. its probably something little.

 

The thought occurred to me that possibly the purge valve opened and may have dumped the fuel pressure killing the engine.

I have fuel at the test port, but it is more of a dribble.

I left it in the guy's parking lot with his permission. Charged the battery overnight.

We hooked up a new set of jumper cables to son's vehicle and it turns over fine. But not firing up.

I plan to put battery back in, hook up that vacumn line and see what happens next.

I may have son's friend pull me home with a tow strap. He has one of those Sanford and Son looking pickups that they mow grass from. Big old Ford F250 with duallies.

Just need to do when traffic is light.

It is one long gradual downhill then back uphill.

I have located an alternator from the local recycler if I have to replace that. The tach has gotten flakier.

I was just fixing to buy an Ultraguage for MEANDEROVER.

A little time for self-reflection.
