Hi all I have just brought a 63 beetle it has had a small engine fire before I had it.
So I have had to replace the coil, dizzy, points which are electronic plus had to re wire most of the wires.
My problem is not being to clever with wires and had to kind of guess where they all went.
Anyway I thought I had done quite well.
Now everything turns over as it should but it just won't fire up.
I have taken a lead of a spark plug earthed it and there is no spark.
Should there be a live feed to the coil or not and how many wires go to the plus and how many to the earth.
I have had a look on my 68 bay but still carnt work it out
Will they be the same.
Sorry if I'm rambling but I'm totally lost and it's doing my head in
Thanks in advance
Ps merry Christmas everyone one
