It ain't a case of no antri-freeze here...
I've replaced the HT leads, the spark plugs, and the dizzy...
Thing is, I had a 1.2NV in the car, but that engine was toasted by the previous owner, and i've now got a 1.4NV in it... the engine number is the same, but not the cc, but surely that doesn't matter that much??? The dizzy is for a 1.4NV too.
The engine will turn over, but it won't 'spark', does anyone know anything else I can do to try n get the fncker going???

Other options are...
Set it on fire
Give up
or... Ebay it. lol

Any help appreciated :D

I didn't think i'd need that??? Purely coz its an NV engine, I thought it'd be the same???
