Yes correct guys, dizzy can't go on wrong due to offset semi moon shaped location rod thingy. The previous owner must have installed oil pump drive 180 out. But I never knew until I come to diagnose and fix this non start issue. Great support on here thanks very much. Went for a spin last...

Thanks johnymd and Jonbills. Finally cracked it! So after sorting the spark issue, went back to basics like you suggested. TDC the engine, checked the dizzy and it was 180 degrees out! So it appears I was chased my tail half the time by setting the spark sequence to the book. As whoever build...

Hello again. So I have replaced the ignition control module now I have spark again. But the car still fails to run and just back fires out the carbs very badly, not even popping like combustion in the carb. I have checked the firing order and when correct the car will not start at all just...

Roger that. I have an analogue meter. Ordered amazon last night come this morning! At which point should I put the probe on the dizzy? 🤯

Hello Jon and gurus. So I have just tested again, but this time basic voltages across the module. Here is the results. Voltage going in on coil side is 12.4v, voltage coming out on dizzy side is zero volts. This is also during turning over the engine. Surely this means the module is dead? Or...

Got you now! Had to go back to the beginning. Sensor in dizzy. Thanks very much Jon all seems logical now.

Thanks Jon. Excellent analysis! So in layman's terms, I need to test various points from the module and coil etc to see where the voltage signal doesn't flick between 0v and 5v and or 12v. Then I should be able to work out which component has failed. Sorry what point do you refer to as...

See this is the dizzy. Its doing my head in now, I just want to fix the car

Yes it seems that way. I just had the dizzy apart and cleaned it up. Believe it is a 280z dizzy. It's exactly the same as page 78 - 80 in the Haynes repair manual. Called a transistor type. Just tested coil again and I have 12v with ignition on. To the end of the king coil lead to dizzy. I...

Hello. I have an s13 gearbox sitting waiting for my L28. Not sure what other parts I need. Haven't looked into it for a while. What's the L6? Will this bolt straight to my s13 box and onto my L28, with appropriate clutch and flywheel etc.

Yeah. Here you go. It doesn't have points.

Ok so after a different Google search I found my black box which is actually a G423 ignition module. They are sold as an ignition control module? GM motors or Fiat part! So here is my wiring diagram and it appears I am not running a ballast. I believe this diagram is correct... I did wire the...

Thanks everyone for your info from what you have learned, I hope it is the coil. Should have one arrive today to test. My bad I typo'd I actually have a 1.4 OHM coil! And have ordered a 3 OHM! I will order the correct one instead. So it looks like this black box underneath is a ballast you all...

Thanks Rob, Yes all connections are clean and good, I rewired the car from scratch a few years ago with an EZ wiring loom kit. so wiring is all clean tidy and correct spec. Yes was running OK for years, then seemed to go off and progressively get worse. then now just started to tackle it, and...

Just reads 0,00 across positive to neg terminals.
