Wiring help in wellington

Postby tantrum540 » Sat Jun 19, 2004 7:06 pm

Hi All, I am trying to get my 4k going, there is fuel, small spark from the coil but none at the spark plugs...

Is it because my battery is not putting out enough power?
I got a coil from a wrecker... do all coils put out the same spark? if not maybe the coil i have doesnt have enough power to push the spark all the way to the spark plugs, is that logical or probable?

I am getting confused and quite frankly a little pissed of that I cant work it out.

Any advice appreciated.

check your dizzy cap isnt cracked, damaged, and that the electrodes inside it are still there and it decent condition (it could be shorting out somewhere), and it might pay to get some new points and condensor. Also check your leads aren't buggered as well...
