Hey guys, i'm wondering if anyone can help with this drama:
Car: 1993 ford KH laser Engine: 1.6L carby/dizzy etc. (i.e. no computers) Trans: manual
Problem: Wife was driving home from work, when suddenly the car died. No warning whatsoever. It wouldn't start again. Trailered it home, tried again the next morning, started no problems, ran for a few minutes, then died again without warning, and wouldn't start again. This morning and this afternoon I've had the same dramas. starts and runs perfect, dies after a few minutes and won't start again.
Each time I check the spark before running, its fine. after it dies, there's no spark at all. I've replaced the coil, no change. With the ignition on on i have tested the power supply to the coil, and it has 12Volts, but won't show any spark while cranking. Dizzy cap looks fine as do leads (i've swapped out leads, no change either)
