Hi chaps.. just redid engine for a friend, after driving 5kms, it suddenly died and haven't managed to start it since.
Not 100% sure what model, but its a single carb (weber iirc) / non turbo with elec ignition (white cap) and no crank sensor/pickup. Maybe pacer?
Checked fuses, replaced all plug/coil wires and installed a new ignition module (silver one on the distributor).
This model doesn't have points, its electronic.. + car ran perfect before!
when u do the screw driver trick on the coil wire, it sparks when we turn car on and off, but nothing while cranking.. surely the coil should still spark occasionally?
anyway, its dead and not sure what else to try ??
is there a way to diagnose where the spark is being lost with a multimeter?? Car is def getting fuel, serviced the carb - like I said ran perfect, then literally just died and no spark since then. triple checked fuses...
I suspect the pickup is either bust or not getting power which ill check in the morning. Checked all wired in dizzy for breaks etc, found no issues. made sure coil is grounded as well as ignition module.
any ideas?
