Alright, heres what you should check:

You've checked to make sure that when you look down the carbs and you pump the linkage you see fuel squirting down?

Checked the plug by grounding it while turning the car over? car turns over, lights work?


So no spark; checked wires? Run a voltmeter across the coil when turned on? all other wires are connected properly? next: check the cap for cracks, checked the contacts inside it? check the little sprung carbon button that touched agaist the center of the rotor? have you checked to see if the points were loose? do they open and close when you turn the motor? Checked the condenser and it's connection, both to the points, and to the coil? has the distributer moved? when open the "number one line" should be roughly the 5 o'clock position.

It may be entirely possible that somone has wired in another fuse in or near the engine bay. Follow all wires from the engine.

If you've done all that, then i'll have to think about it some more lol

best of luck bro,
