Hi,
I have an old pre-war 6cyl MG . It uses an old non-original Lucas distributor (probably from a Healey 3000.
The problem I have is this :
No spark at the plugs! I have current right through to the distributor end of the HT lead to the coil, where there is a very healthy spark. After that there is no life.
I have renewed the rotor arm, the distributor cap ,all the leads and plug the caps. I have fitted a new coil, new points and condenser. I have tried breakerless ignition but still cannot get a spark at the plugs.
The fault occurred suddenly --it just seemed as though the ignition had been switched off. There was no banging or spluttering or misfire. The engine just stopped. Any Ideas please, I can't think of anything else to check. Regards
