I have an rsturbo s1 i had it started few months ago since ive changed inlet manifold and alternater now im getting no nspark its driving me nutz can anyone help please

 

have ya put the earth back on the inlet, and have ya checked everything is wired up

 

Yeah done that mate got power coming out of the coil just no spark, im pulling my hair out with it

 

have ya got a new dizzy cap and rotor arm

 

Yeah mate ? its got me completely stuckk

 

right have ya got spark coming from the ht leads

 

No mate

 

what leads are they and are they on the right way i.e 1-4-3-2

 

yeah mate was running fine b4 i done the work

 

is it mfi or efi, and i take it all the loom is plugged in?????? when did ya change the dizzy cap

 

might be the condenser on the dizzy try swapping it over

 

Presumably when you say coil power is ok you mean from the king lead not the supply voltage to it as that means nothing. Should have healthy spark from king lead. If not theres no point opening up dizzy, checking HT leads etc.

Check the dizzy cap for cracks despite it being NEW.

Its mfi yeah n everything slse plugged in n changed dizzy cap n rotor arm wednesday ,dont know if this makes any sense to you but the plug on side of dizzy shows pos-12v 0=4 1/2v neg=0v but when i take off small earth i get 12v on all ???? also tried direct earth from battery to coil n nuffin then tried live n nuffin been trying for past 2 weeks its driving me nutz

 

when i take ht lead from dizzy that goes to the coil ive got good power but when i put it to a earth it doent spark

 

where do ya try to earth it to i.e engine/body and where did ya get ya dizzy cap from, does sound like either an earth problem or ya dizzy

 

Thats the LT (King lead) what do you mean by you have good power? When this lead is earthed (On good earth not a painted surface, rather likes of unpainted bolt head etc) and engine turned over you should have a spark if not this will be your problem.

Martin

 

tested with electric voltage meter and got good voltageking led to engine lift eye and turned it over and theres no spark and then put it to battery terminal and no spark

 

You won't have any voltage at king lead unless engine turned over and this will be thousands of volts which your voltmeter woulden't be able to read, I think the plug on side of dizzy you talk about is for the electronic module (Effectively an electronic switch for coil)

You should have +12V to coil one side and the other is switched by above method it's actually when the earth is broken you have power at king lead due to voltage collapse inside coil.

Depending where in Dartford you are I may be able to help you?

I'm in real need of some help im at da1 5jr i would really be grateful for any help
Thanks Chris

 

Another thing to check is the green wire from the coil as these break.

Martin

 

thats alredy bin replaced and checked

 

it might be ya lead from the coil to the dizzy as they can break up inside, are they magnicore leads

 

have ya tried racepower just down the road from ya

 

is that in borough green ?

 

In that case I reccon the inducive module in the dizzy is faulty or the wiring to/on it or even the coil itself.

nah its in swanscombe just past mac,d's
