Hi i was wondering if anyone can help as im pulling my hair out. ive got a 1.8 16v rado and ive just changed the entire engine for a 1.8 16v recon engine. ive wired eveything back up and now she turns all day long but not a spark from the plugs. changed the dizzy, h.t leads, plugs, coil, rotor arm and unit and still no spark! Could anyone possibly help please?

I'm guessing Jim means check the polarity of the conectors.

School boy error but easily done.

I'd check out the hall sender on the dizzy too, look in your haynes manual how to do this,
On the KR the hall senders are notoriously tempremental.

If you are struggling to get it going or dont know what you're doing I'm happy to come have a look for you depending on where abouts you are in the world.

Contact number 07791 001385 or pm or mk2_16v@hotmail.com
