I'm trying to bring a dead 914 back to life. I have done the usual prep work and have hooked up the electrical system. The car turns over strongly but there is no spark! No spark at the plugs, no spark at the coil. I have switched the coil out with one I had laying around but i'm not getting any better results. Could it be the voltage regulator located in the box where the fuel injected controls are? (mine has been converted to dual carbs BTW).
What should I try next? Thanks in advance! |

Grab the rotor and try and wiggle it side to side. If it moves it's probably bad. Rebuilt dizzy time.
