[Spridgets] Won't Start

[Rick Fisk]

I already have the original engine and trans.  :-)

When Mike upgraded to a 1275 and ribcase he very generously donated the 948 and smoothcase to my race car effort.  Mike is in southern California and I live in Michigan, but at the time my brother-in-law was the president of a nationwide trucking company.  I put everything on a pallet and got it shipped to Michigan for free!  The 948 got me through driver's school and is currently in my garage undergoing a refresh for duty in my street Bugeye.  The smoothcase lives in a Series 1 Lotus Seven.

I guess 20 years might see a little corrosion in Lucas connectors.  I'm sure you can relate.  After fixing that I installed a new combination light/ignition switch.  (Chinese junk)  Ready to cruise, or so i thought.  Just got finished washing the car to remove several moths of just sitting in the garage.  Started it up to take a ride and backed down the driveway.  Let the clutch out to go and the engine quit and will not start.  Checked for fuel flow and no problem there.  Got spark.  I just put a new battery in it yesterday, so the engine spins up nicely, but it won't run.  I'm starting to get discouraged.
