In a previous post I was llooking for my fuel pump relay. I found it and replaced it (Thanks, Mario). Still no start. I have done everytning on this punch list (7-11 lifted from this board) up to and including #11. Everything is fine until #11 where I get 11.5 volts. Is this enough?
Punch List for Olga Ignition System:
1-pull all fuses from fuse box on door frame
2- Clean terminals
3- Replace with new fuses of proper amperage
4- Google "How to Use Multimeter"
5-Test all positive posts in fuse box
a-Key off
b-Key on
6- Install remote starter button
One clip on terminal +30 from battery (red wire)
One clip on terminal 50 from ignition switch (blue-yellow wire)
7- Remove the "-" wire at the coil, and the middle (from the coil) high tension lead in the dizzy cap. set the end of the high tension lead so it is a couple of mm from a known good ground. Turn ignition on and temporarily ground/unground the "-" terminal at the coil. you should get small sparks at the high tension lead end. If yes good coil and current.
8- Time to test the points. Leave the high tension lead where it was sparking to ground, and reattach the "-" wire to the coil, turn the engine over and observe the high tension lead for sparks.
9- Reattach high tension lead to center of dizzy cap and remove one of the spark plug leads from a spark plug. Thread an 8-32 x 2” machine screw into the spark plug lead and position the screw head where it can jump to a known good ground (like in step 1). turn the engine over and observe sparks (4x slower than before but regular interval)
10- If no, examine dizzy cap and rotor for corrosion and remove corrosion with emery paper or similar if they are damaged
replace.
11- The coil needs any 12 volt feed that is fused and comes on with the ignition on. Test the voltage at the + lead to the coil with the multimeter.
12- Learn how to test the 3-wire Hall Effect Sensor in the distributor
I'm thinking the next step is #12. Can anyone help me with this? Please? The photo shows the 3-wire connection that I think is the next link to check in the ignition chain.
Thanks to all!
Tom
