Hi All
As some of you know have been building up a new engine after the last one spilt its guts .
So today was squeaky bum time, start up , see what happens …
Well nothing as it turns out , I'm starting outside of van ( no garage , no driveway, so just the easiest option)
so have everything hooked up in front garden (old bell housing courtesy of cog box , Many thanks )
So picture to see what I'm up too ...theres a fire extinguisher not far away …and yes thats petrol on a stick .. I know …
Anyway can't get a spark , i have two coils ( accuspark and bosch black ) both have 3ohms across + /- and i have two dizzy's accuspark electronic , and a points based (cant remember but probably JustKampers as there local )which i generally carry as a spare .
have tried each coil with each dizzy ( all were working recently ) but still can't get a spark .
I have a plus to the plus coil direct from battery and a negative to negative again direct from battery , have a neg to case and also to starter bolt , tested body of dizzys get earth and on case , tested +/ - on coil again both ok , HT leads were new in March ish (Petronix)
Im sure I'm probably just missing something and being stupid/daft , but can't figure it out .. Please help
Thanks
Chico
