It was given to me by the previous owner new in box

New dizzy in got a good strong spark got fuel and not even a pop.

Can someone please send me a wiring diagram for a 3 pin dizzy, I have the an old (knackered) 2 wire dizzy which I'm replacing with a new 3 pin dizzy.

It got recovered later on just a clutch cable

Bought an old 3.5 v8 yesterday got a LPG conversion which works car was running fine. Recovery truck broke down on the way home not far from me so I got a tow rest of the way. Had it running while being towed and it cut out now it's not getting a spark from the coil.

Just fitted 1 on the drivers side fookin nightmare of a job good luck! Got it from ebay about £50.
