Ignition amplifier?

From memory it should either be on the wing next to the coil or on the side of the dizzy with either two or three wires going to it -much much much cheaper than a new dizzy.

Check the reluctor clearance inside the dizzy as well.....


Plus ALL wires -these can get easily broken just through wear and tear...

HTH,

Bowie.

I had the same problem with mine changed the coil, dizzy, rotor arm, and put on brand new leads on her, turned out to be sum little ecu white box under the drivers seat, gave it a waggle and it started first fick of the key :roll: so i changed that and shes bein fine since! Give that a try, you never know!!

I'm thinking ignition ampliefier too, but make sure the battery is topped right up, mine won't start either if the battery is a bit too flat.
