My car broke down on the way home, between pushing and jumping in and out I knocked out a number of fuses. It's not the first time this has happened, so they probably weren't right to begin with.
So, what amperage goes where? 1974 1.8ish (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i921.photobucket.com-11654-1427322057.1.jpg) |

If it turns over then you have enough juice in the battery for it to run.
Do you have carbs on this car or FI? Next, pull a plug wire off, place it close to the tin or other grounded metal part and check to see if you have spark while someone turns it over. It sounds like you do, but verify this first. Next, if it is carbureted, pull the fuel line off, and put it into a cup. Turn the key to run for 2-3 seconds and see if there is any fuel filling the cup. Spark, fuel, air are all it needs to run. Check those first then report back. |
