missing? well if its missing down low can be a number of things

1. check that u have got cross fire in ur leads
2. make sure u have all the plugs working
3. make sure it has somehing to do with the ignition system lol

Same as usual, you need to eliminate the leads etcetera first before you can say it's the electronics.

But if it is, there may be very little you can do for it apart from replacement as they are mostly sealed units. It's very difficult to get them apart generally.

Check spark plug gap and condition and replace if needed.Do a resistance test on ht leads with a ohmmeter there should be 800ohms per foot of length of ht lead.make sure distributor cap is not
cracked or worn and rotor is not shorting on distributor sharft and ignition timing is set correct :D
