Right basically it wont start and i have fitted the following:
New crank sensor
NEw rotor arm
New Dizzy cap
New plugs
New leads
A 2nd hand coil that i know works
I got a 2nd hand coil amplifier with the 2nd hand coil and it fired up, but i snapped one of the little red and blue wires so needed another coil amplifier, i bought one of Sparkie off here and it arrived today fitted it and it wont start, i ran a piece of wire front the connections at the top of the coil from the coil amp ( where the two red and blue wires join the coil) and touched it to the chassis and SNAP a spark so the coils getting power but its not creating a spark BUTT i know this is a healthy coil its only since i put the new amplifier on it that its wont spark, iv been told it doesnt matter if the coil amp is sending power to the coil it cound still be a dodgy coil amp as it has 4 pins and theres a signal or sumit it should send??

its getting fuel ok, as said abouve on the old coil amp it started up fine and ran ok but since i broke it and got a replacement one its been playing up, i think it could just be down to the new replacement one being shite?
