I'm not sure if I'm in the right place or not but here goes. I've been trying to get my car going again after it has set up for a while (About 7 years - OUCH!). I've cleaned out all the fuel lines tinking I would have fuel problems. Well, I'm not getting a spark at the coil wire. I've reset the points and still no spark. I also filed the points a little with some fine sandpaper. I finally gave up for the day. Anyone have any quick fixes or ideas. I should know this stuff as I was once a technician. It's just been so long since I've worked on anything. My patience is not what it used to be either.:af: Thanks in advance for your help.:TU:
It Runs!! Well, I worked on it a while today and I finally got it to run.:grin: I replaced the points and condensor. After I replaced them it still wouldn't start. o No: Then while I was checking for a ground with a test light, I opened the points with the test light. The only thing was I forgot to turn off the ignition.:eek2: After I got a little jolt, it started giving a spark.:TU: I guess my car wanted to get even for letting it set up for so long.:laugh: Oh well, better get back to it. Talk to yall later. Hopefully will be up and running soon.:3gears:
