i had the same problem a few years ago. i would look again at the trigger points, real close this time.they can get screwed up inside, as well as at the electrical plug outside. they can also just not work for whatever reason.if you have another dizzy, swap it out and see if that helps. i would bet the problem is there.
another option is install carbs.

Nice to know it runs Gint. Can I buy your jackstands? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/lol2.gif)

That actually gave me a really good laugh Ron, thanks! I own 2 914's. Just because they're not on jackstands now doesn't mean they won't be by the end of the week. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

Thanks Dave. You missed a piece of the thread though. It's running again. I had the firing order backwards on the distributor resulting in 2 and 4 swapped. It's usually the little things that getchya.
