Right.... Re did all the earths, put a plug in the coil HT and bingo it pulses...

So from that I guess the module in the dizzy was working (as the plug was pulsing)

One thing I didn't check was wear on the dizzy cap, so I put a spot of marker on each terminal and ran the engine over a few times, no apparent contact !

So I am guessing the cap is the culprit ?

The leads are all new as is the rotor, the cap is an old one.... So my spidey senses are leaning towards that at the moment

Either that or the module is out of phase...
