Hi got my golf fixed today  :smiley:  it was the distributor mechanic said he wasn't getting a spark but was getting a live feed coming into the distributor but nothing coming out. The distributor was £79.50 +vat from GSF. Once we fitted it we got a strong spark. Took a while to start it as spark plugs and the bores were flooded with petrol from when i tried starting it a few times when it broke down. Now its back to normal. Thanks for your help
