i run a 1.6 c16se block with and 1.4 multi point head with twin 40's and up rated cam, the dizzy i have had to be made to fit by a friend of mine to get it to spark due to the miss match engine components, (dizzy number 0237009073-jgf04) i have a coil with blue amp( coil number 1227020036-166 ((965)).
the problem started whilst driving home on the 27th, the rev counters bounced from 0-5k then the car died. wouldn't re start and when cranking the rev counter doesnt move like before on cranking. the aa came a towed me to a service stop, put on a jump pack and it started. checked my alternator and said it weren't changing enough. with the car running a carried on my travels and drove another hour with just head lights on and the car was fine apart from one small cough and after managing to keep it going by bumping it got home.
this morning i went out and it started fine. whilst looking for things either loose or a miss we started it 6-8 times and it was fine. had lunch came back to it to go drive it and nothing. we have no spark. we've tried another coil and amp and still can not get a spark....
anyone have any ideas?
what should the 2 wires on the side of the dizzy go to?
what do the 6 wires for the amp do and where should they go?
the car has no alarm or any system of that sort, we've checked the battery and alternator and they are both fine along with fuses. the only thing thats odd is it sometimes miss fired when indicating right but now we've checked that it doesn't spark or anything!
