Hi guys. Not getting spark on my 302w ZC fairlane.

pull the dizzy cap off and crank it over and check if the rotor button is turning if it still has the old fiber gear it may have striped

Rotor is spinning



Would the car not be on TDC cause it not to spark?

no it doesnt have to be on tdc while you have the cap off spin it over again and see if the points are sparking?
