[QUOTE="BJ1, post: 415837, member: 355"] It's not an "earthing plate" just a dust cover and isn't needed at all so don't waste your time and money. Check that you have an intact earth lead between the dizzy base plate and the body. It's a small braided lead that is welded to the base plate and connects to the body at the other end by a screw. They are often either broken or badly corroded. You won't get a spark if it is broken. Also worth checking that your points are clean - some come with a coating that needs cleaning off. [/QUOTE]
