safechav cheers for tryin mate. Am currently lookin at buyin a new dizzy for 50 quid which seems quite reasonable and i may as well just replace it. Should hopefully have one in a few days, there's one on here and one on ebay

Checked the spark from the coil as well and......................there's no spark!

Still not sure about doin it myself though. There's a mobile mechanic not far from me so may give him a call.
