I replaced the plugs/wires/cap/rotor/coil and ICM on my '85 over the weekend. Now when I crank it, the digital dash instrument cluster flickers at idle but is ok at speed. Could this be caused by the following: When I went to remove the old ignition control module and disconnected the wires from each end of it, the brown plastic "cradle" (for lack of a better word) where the wires rest that connect to one side of the ICM (the side towards the front of the car) was so brittle from heat and age that it basically fell apart. I removed the broken pieces and when I went to purchase another one discovered the local parts stores didn't have this item available so I put it all back together without this plastic piece. Was this serving as some sort of voltage insulator? The dash lights never flickered before at idle. Thanks!

I would be surprised if the wires did it, but you can test the theory...
