are they different types of ignitions?? or they all the same with EKs

you need the igniter to suit your distributor - OBD2 version

ease up guys I'm sure he's a good mechanic.So many times one little thing can go wrong that might not even be the mechanics fault but they are the easies person to blame

teh mechanic, its my old car and I put too much time and effort into it, that I dont want to see it playing up as much as anyone else.

UPDATE ~ still got the same problem. no spark out of the distributor cap once its placed back on.

anyways i got a wire diagram. highlighted in blue is where my spark is coming from. area in green is where the spark is meant to be distributed to, however im not getting anything there.

could my problems be in any of the areas highlighted in red?

can you take a picture of the inside of the distributer cap?

Maybe the spring that holds the pickup in contact came off?

also the red parts shouldn't affect any of your problems, the problem lies on the angled line that connects the 2 green circled parts. Or more correctly where that line contacts to the ignition wires.
