hey guys i just got a vl.Ive tried starting the car it turns over but wont start, its got petrol ive cleaned all the plugs and ive cleaned the distributor out aswell it had some moisture in it. I can hear the fuel pump pumping the fuel but it seems to be electrical. can anyone help me. I need to get it started. any info will be greatly useful. thanx
Get some petrol.
pour it every where over the car.
light it.
she'll be right
nah have u got spark yet?
Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
Could be lots of things.....have you checked all your leads for spark...have you got constant fuel pressure.....is your afm still working....
Have a search on this site....try everything that you find then if it still won�t go....start to worry
Was working on it on the long weekend and discovered it had no spark, then i would just have to get a new ignition coil wouldnt i. What else would i need? how would i check fuel pressure? give me some help.
ok so you have no spark...well....Id change your leads, ignition coil and plugs...see how that goes....if still not going maby try a new cas....dizzy.....rotor....I had to change all that myself when I had problems starting....found it to be the cas..

clamp your return hose with plyers, if the car starts then it's your AFM or fuel pump
could still be ur fuel pump.
same thing happened to me. my car would only drive with over 3/4 of a tank of fuel. b.c my pump was fu cked and the weight of the fuel in the tank pushed it through the lines.
nah go for the cas or the power transistor on the Dizzy. Also check all the wiring to these things. Maybe borrow someone else's whole dizzy and put that in
i had this problem with both the VL's i have owned. first VL it was the crank angle sensor but the VL i have now was the plug that come off the drivers side of the coil it felt tight to me but it wasnt tight enough. get the auto electrition to tighten up the terminals on the plug there and see if that works. worked for me.
Hey guyz i finaly got my VL started i replaced the ignition coil and there was two wires on the distributor that were on the wrong way around so i took them off and put new connections on them and put them back on. AND IT STARTED!!!!!! runs good as!!!! thanx for all ur help
