Help need with timing..........

[sweat69]

I have just fitted a 123 ignition system and i can not get the bus to run any sense.
I have put the leads on the dizzy cap in the correct firing order and put the pulley at tdc and the rotor arm is pointing at no 1 lead so it should fire? Or is there any one near gillingham dorset who can help me. :roll: Cheers. :mrgreen:

Sorry to ask the obvious, but are both leads from the 123 connected correctly to the coil?
Also, have you tried doing the initial set up as per the manual, where you rotate until you just see the green light inside?

Hi!

I'm in Gill...........Let me know via pm, and I'll pop round one eve......

I don;t know anything about a 123, but 2 heads are better than one. I also have a new coil and some spare plug leads if you need to isolate those 2 areas. Got a timing gun and colourtune too.

Cheers!

So it's reliable then, after all these years? Must admit, it's tempting to get one......

What other spec on the engine ar you running?
