No spark :(


so last night while tinkering with the car, trying to get it started, i noticed i wasn't getting any spark at all even from the coil.... this is what i have hooked up to the coil right now. i have the one that comes from the engine harness, and from the condenser on the + side and i have a ground on the - side with the middle obviously going to the dizzy. It seems like i'm missing something but have no clue what it is...

suggestions? oh! and my points arent sparking either......

But sounds like you have it wired correctly. whats your battery voltage when you are spinning the engine over?

you need to see what the cranking voltage is though. some ignition systems dont run with less than 9 volts.

You can use a volt meter and have someone crank the car and you check the readings
