I have an 82 Buick Regal. I bought a motor off an 83 same v6 231 2brrl carb. I set the time to TDC and it will start and run as long as distributor plug that goes to ECM wiring harness is not plugged in. The min I plug that 4 plug in the motor dies out. If I plug it in and then try to start it will crank but not turn over. It does get spark an I have tried 2 distributors the one that was on the original 82 and the one that came with the motor off the 83 I need to know if it’s ecm, prom, do I need to set the timing to 6*. A friend said that it dies because the distributor and ECM are trying to time on its own that’s why it dies out. Please help!!!!!!!
