Further on non-starting Ur quattro

["Jim Haseltine" <Jim@ur-q.freeserve.co.uk>]

Thanks to all who replied, after a break to watch Paris-Roubaix and the F1
Grand Prix (I'm on vacation so I _am_ getting my priorities right) I
returned to the fault-finding.
Looks like the problem lies with the distributor cap and rotor arm, there is
a spark at the coil but none at the distributor cap plug lead sockets. I'd
noticed this morning that the rotor arm didn't look to be in too good
condition but as the whole set-up (distrib, cap & arm) are only just over
two years old I didnt think that it was a factor. Although I've got the
distributor from my 81 Ur-q on the bench the components aren't
interchangable so I'll have to wait until I can get replacements.

Thanks again,

Jim Haseltine
