    The car starts ok when the coil (i believe its the coil it has 2 wires conection it and a spark plugish wire) has a direct link to the battery but when i remove it, it has a hard time starting (can get to start but both need full gas). When it does start it has a very ruff idle or it dies, sometimes i have to keep full gas and it is very slowly running and when i let off it dies. It ran great a couple of days ago before i changed the ignition switch (with direct line from battery) I really need help with this i have ran out of ideas!
