I was referred here because I was told you guys are a very helpful Bunch so I have a question if you don't mind. Please forgive me I know this is probably been asked before but I can't not find it. I have a 1974 914 1.8. I recently put a new coil in yet I still have no spark if not extremely low amount of spark due to that obviously the car will not start. It cranks perfectly but I have no spark can anybody help me?

Check the plug wires, they could be the wrong resistance. Check engine ground strap body to tranny. Swap to a pertronix. Daunting task but not impossible. Leave updates here. |
