<DIV><FONT size=2>Firstly I have no idea how much you know. Secondly I'm
treating this as a simple non-starter and ignoring what you have done and the
fact it seemed to run at some point..</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>I take it you had both valves for No.1 cylinder closed when
the piston was at TDC? It's only then the rotor will be in the correct
position, and the leads should be fitted to the cap 1 3 4 2 anti-clockwise
from there.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>After cranking a bit are the plugs wet or at least smelling
strongly of fuel? If not fuel isn't getting through. Does the pump
deliver fuel if the hose is removed from the carb and directed into a
container?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Have you checked for a spark at each plug lead when
cranking? If you have an old-fashioned neon timing light you can check
when No.1 is getting its spark. A powered timing light may need to be run
off a separate 12v supply as the reduced voltage when cranking may not be
enough.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>If it only runs with the key held in the crank position then
there is a break in the normal ignition supply via the ballast
wire.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>What ignition system does it have? Original 45DE4?
45DM4? Points? Or after-market electronic?</FONT></DIV>
