replace the dizzy or TFI unit on the side of it ... make sure you use heat prove grease on it when pluging the loom back into it!

Try this,
Unplug the coil
Get a voltmeter
Check for voltage on the red wire


If there is no voltage, your relay is dead (ECU relay).

If there is voltage, and you have no spark, Id be looking dizzy/TFI.


Cheers
