have you ruled out the king lead (from coil to cap) ?
and made sure coil is sparking ?
and the carbon brush on the cap is in contact with the arm ?
(never had a cap off 24v but assume its standard set up ?)

hi dave, done all that, have spark from the coil, new rotor arm etc, but no spark to plugs so i am assuming the dizzy itself is up the swanny  worst thing is i cant get one as yet as no-ne seems to have one but may get some replies soon hopefully |

I have one, but I know the moment I sell it I shall be wanting it myself. So you will have to be very persuasive
