No spark ??

[aj_golf]

So I've stripped my engine Down an put it back together! (also fitted electric windows) but now when I turn the ignition on I get a spark but when I try an turn it over I got no spark??? Also engine is not turning over as quick as it should same sign as a flat battery? Any ideas??

Have you double checked that ALL the earths are cleaned and re attached...

Yeah, I had to! I didn't the first time an blew the ecu but that's sorted now.

What about the ignition amplifier?

I blew an ECU on a mk2 digifant a week or so ago, borrowed another ECU and took it with the bracket and ignition amplifier, had the same symptoms as you when I fitted it. Put the original amplifier back on with new ECU back on and fired first time....

[aj_golf]

Yeah I swapped it an put my original one back on but still nothing. But took the ecu off an put it on my dads Gti an it fired his up. So I am really puzzled "/

[tomp]

Can only suggest the obvious really, spark from coil, dizzy cap, leads, good earth, etc

When your ECU went did it completely flood your engine? I put a blow torch on the spark plugs to dry them out, and had an air line down the spark plug holes to dry everything out...

Got power to the coil. Changed the dizzy cap leads are 6 months old

Yeah I dd flood the engine but I did dry everything off. Just wired I got spark on ignition but not when I turn it over? Thanks anyway
