ok. first off i have a bone stock 1974 super with 1600DP. it ran great up untill about 3 weeks ago when it started back fireing and missing. so far i have replaced the coil, spark plugs,points,condensor,dist cap and rotor. all gaps are set dead on. but im not getting any spark from the dist cap to the plug wires. the coil wire throws a great spark, and the points are sparking good also. it has a 205 dizzy if that helps any.

I would need to get on of my old dizzys out but isnt there some wires under the cap and rotor that allow the dist to have a ground up to the points? Confirm the wiring inside and underneath the points are are still attached. I also have gotten a bad brand new condensor as well Tom Veeley 1985 BMW K100 1999 Honda Super Hawk 996

well i've cleaned it the best i can get it, and managed to get four pops from the motor before landing back where i was before. and to help things more i found out that some asshole decided to cut my throttle cable while i was away. time to buy a locking deck lid latch i guess http://www.myspace.com/jettin_past_u

I had an asshole neighbor screw with my Unimog and with you having issues with the T cable, can you confirm all your plug wires are on the correct Cylinders? My Neighbor rotated plug wires and carb adjustments. Tom Veeley 1985 BMW K100 1999 Honda Super Hawk 996
