Got it running with new coil & leads but the hall senders in both the dizzys are gone.

Coil shouldn't arc anywhere, so glad you've got a new coil.

With regards to both distributors having bad hall senders, check the wiring as it may be that rather than the hall senders themselves. It'd be unlucky to have two faulty ones especially if one of them is new. Get WD40 and spray it inside the hall sender plug.

Its not new just meant to be good. I'll get a new hall sender at some point, main thing is its running and I can get about. The trials bike was far too cold on the early run to work, lack of lights doesnt help either :)

Thanks for the help guys :)
