Hi
My sc is proving to be a pain in the rear at the moment :roll: It was running really well then we fitted the accuspark ignition system and once we fitted this it proved a sod to get started. Anyway after refitting it and checking the timing etc it was up and running really well.
My dad went to start it a few days later- no start, turns over fine just won't fire? So far we have checked that the fuel pump is pumping, there is a spark at the plug end and the timing is at 4 btdc. All we get is constant turning over with no attemot to fire :evil:
We have today gone back to points and condensor, double checked everything again and..... no 'kin difference :evil: :evil: It will just not fire? i have spark, fuel What the hell is going on????? :cry:
I am now losing the will to live with it!! When you time it which is number 4 cylinder? As my engine has the timing marks on the flywheel I used the cylinder nearest the bulkhead is this right?? I think the issue is timing but we have tried moving the dizzy whilst turning the engine over but again not even a cough :roll:
Any advice really appreciated
