one point....look at the wire comming from the + part of the coil.....is it pink and white and going into the loom? or is it going towards the bulkhead as a lonley wire?....bob should be running ballast but a previous owner has swapped the thing to non-balast, and ive seen a few more running this setup

UPDATE... Brand new new coil, leads, plugs & dizzie cap. (wrong points supplied, so obviously not fitted ) Still weak and irregular spark @ points, so next step ?? Correct points and condensor change ?? Big thx to Baby Bruv Phil for coming up to help... anyone offer anymore advice  |
