No spark

Featured Replies

Hi,

I've got a 1992 forman pickup 1.3 carburettor model,

I can't get any spark at the plugs,

Any ideas,

Check the distributor.

Yes most common failure is the magnetic pickup in the distributer. But first remove the distributer cap and spin the engine over to check the distributer is turning.. the drive pins can shear as the distributer starts to seize up due to nobody ever lubricating it.

Sorted now, the truck has been sat in a field since 2002, it was a poor earth between the body and the ignition trigger unit on the inner wing

Next time try giving more details if you want better advice.

 

"the truck has been sat in a field since 2002" was a very important piece of information, don't you think? Remember, you know everything about the car. We know only what you told us in two words.
