Hi all,
I feel like I've tried everything, so I'm appealing to to the sage wisdom of the board. ok - 74 1.8 Ljet. Was running - albeit started getting a little rough - so I thought maybe the timing was off, or needed new points - etc. Tune up stuff. Had a really weak spark coming off #s 1&2. I got a new: Coil, Wires, Cap, Rotor, points, and condenser (which i noticed was hooked to the + side of the coil.. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) which I thought was kinda weird it had been running fine at all. Anyway - when i put it all back together - i made sure that: Notch on fan was at TDC when cylinder 1 valves were all the way in. Dizzy - and rotor (pointing at notch) are in the right spot (if not close enough). Points gaped at .016 (at least until I can get running to put the dwell meter on it) I DO have 12 volts at the coil. But - it will start. Not even a stumble.. nothing. Ideas? Thanks!! - mike |
