OK yeah that's well helpful there is 1 bit don't understant though it says to check the secondary windings check resistance between A and secondary windings A is blk/yel yeah? But where do I probe the secondary windings? Also I can't see how to check the ignitor I don't even know what 1 is? I've checked relay feul pump and fuses so far all are fine. Thankyopu very much for your time you are being a great help. Jon.

OK I've sorted that bit 1 thing though is you say to disconect the 2p connector this means 2 plug yeah? I've only got 1 main plug on my distributor will this mess up my reading? My engine is a b18c? Thanks.
