MG Midget and Sprite Technical - no spark-update
Hi All, Thought I'd let you know that following the excellent advice I received from this forum, a faulty pertronix unit was the cause. Replaced it with a new unit from Simon BBC (25) and the car started right up! Not sure how or why the Pertronix failed, but the engine started and sounded really sweet. Thanks to all who helped. Now I just have to pass the MOT........ Regards, Andrew |

Thanks Gryf, Les Bengston and Dave Rhine were particularly helpful. It saved me a lot of time chasing shadows. It also provided some great info about testing the Pertronix unit, and I guess other similar electronic ignition systems. Regards, Andrew |
