BOOOOO

Hi mate good to see it back together and its looking sexy!!

The symptons ring a bell as i had loads of trouble with my coil earth and ignition in general.

Make sure the section where your coil sits is cleaned up as the earth here needs to be good as we all know.

There is a small single black wire that is earthed to the coil base plate and i added a second earth strap from this to a spot near the head light which has helped no end and i havent had any problems with it since !! ( So far lol )

You have to remember that 20 year old wiring loom isnt the most reliable so the best you can do unless you replace it is to try keep the earths and connections clean.

Il check mine tomorow and take a picture of my coil wiring if needed.

Good luck

Ok, been out there again today. Is starting to do my head in now!

When the car hasnt been turned over for a few hours, it pops when im turning it over (im assuming the timing is out, as i took the dizzy out). But it only pops twice, then theres nothing at all.

Then ill leave it two hours, an try an again, and ill get two pops an nothing again.

BUT, if i take the fuse out for the fuel pump and turn it over for a bit, then replace the fuse and try an start it. I get a HUGE backfire, and nothing again. Ive done this two or 3 times now, and everytime it gives a massive back fire. May just be me, but it sounds like there getting louder each time.

Any help would be appreciated, else its headed for the scrappy
