I have been researching possible Opti-Spark issues as to my 95 Vette after replacing it after it developed a miss that got worse day by day. It started on the first crank, idle was smooth as I reinstalled coolant. Did minor test drive around the block with no issues. Too tired after the meticulous install and would test drive next day. Started fine, idle fine but after only 3+ miles started to miss badly and eventually quit. Would not immediately start again. Let sit for about an hour, started ok and managed to get back home. Would start ok again but had the miss. Made appointment with a local GMC dealer to do Diagnostic Test as now the car will not start? They said the replaced Opti-Spark was bad??? I have had my doubts about their analysis as I felt I had purchased a quality part from a reputable Corvette company, but the part was not made in USA. What I have found is the Opti-Spark is no longer made by GM and the after-market parts are total failures most of the time. How can this be? So, I have been researching Codes, relays, coils and wiring that might be the problem!!! Most all of my searches have resulted in "failed Opti-Sparks", some 2 & 3 times after being installed for limited miles! The LT1 5.7 is a great motor but GM married it to a "drunken Opti family" and that is the best I can describe one of the worst parts and its location on an engine. Who in their right mind designs an electrical part to be installed below a water part with a "coolant weep hole"? Most of the reported failures seem to be due to the two small screws that hold the Rotor Button in place coming loose or/and those with bad worn-out oil seals! Those having moderate success, even with the most expensive ones, are removing the outer protective cover and "Loc-Tite" the screws. Sad you have to do this with a new $600+ part. So, my final path has led me to Petris Engineering in Alabama with an above average success rate due to their in-house manufacturing in USA. They secure those two Rotor screws with Loc-Tite on assemble and use the top-rated Mitsubishi Optical sensor just like the original GM unit. This is a very difficult tear down & reinstall that I am not looking forward to doing again!!!
