Ok, I gotta go mate. Check you coil (under the inlet manifold), also take the dizzy cap off and check that plus the rotor.. not the easiest of jobs at this time (dark), but yeah.. should be something along those lines...

Cheers

Just a thought... there's quite a few threads on here about no spark... might pay to search for them, or go through the threads. Its basically the same procedure each time.


Cheers

Well doesnt the igntion modulator control current and since theres no spark couldnt that be it, AS once it got warmed up it was originally stalling couldnt that be one of the resistors shorting out once it got to a certain temperture. And that would cause the engine to stall in the first place. ??Thanks guys

igniter module. Lights the spark.

The ford TFI modules had a problem failing with temp sometimes.
Is that what we are thinking

Ok, not quite good in this area... but I thought EFs if its a coil pack is EDIS? But im probably mixing the two up.



Cheers
