I recently aquired a bone stock '75 with a 1.8 and was told it ran great last time it was started 6 months ago. So I charged the battery, turned the key....and nothing. The other electronics work though. I can hear the fuel pump kick on, headlights pop up, horn works, etc.
Does it sound like an ignition switch problem, or a starter problem? Or something else I'm not thinking of? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) |

I will try that, thanks I had the same problem just as you discribed, it turned out to be the white plastic switch. The old one was replaced "it was badly cracked" so I replaced it with a new one, turned out the new switch was bad, so I replace it and the car started right up. Mike |
