Still having problems trying to get my EL falcon going after replacing the dizzy.
Engine cranks o/k but will not fire on petrol or gas.
It appears that there is no current at the gas/petrol change-over switch.
I have checked everything that I can think of but cannot find anything.
Getting a bit frustrated ,the other half is starting to call me Silly Old Bugger for even trying to fix it,so with your help I will try to prove her wrong.

Sorry I forgot to mention The engine cranks and I get a good spark but does not appear to get any fuel.
I removed the wire from the gas solenoid in the engine bay and could not get any current with the igition switched on.
