I decided today to try the electronic ignition.. Well like before, It is making spark (very good spark might I add) from the coil. But it isnt making spark from the dizzy. Anyone have any ideas? I have changed the cap and rotor, and I have tryed a new cap and rotor. FI engine, anything particular about a FI engine with Electronic ignition?
Thanks! Andrew |

Well, are all the plug wires good?
Are they connected to the proper locations? Is the dizzy and plugs clean with wires snuggly attached? If not the spark will travel the dirt path because it is of lower electrical resistence than the open gap of the spark plug. I've seen it happen on my air-cooled and water-cooled cars. If the old cap and rotor was good then put them back on and see what happens. |
