Hi Grahame.

So after a few hours of playing about I found the issue. The HT lead from the armature to the distributor cap has what looks like an inline suppressor. It has screw threads at each end which screw into the HT lead. Well I unscrewed this gizmo and then re screwed it tight and bingo I now have a spark at both spark plugs. I’m now in the process of cleaning the carb and fuel system to hope fully start the beast tomorrow. For information the distributor manufacturer is S.E.V MARCHAL Can’t say I’ve heard of them but I think it’s French.

Thank you very much for that detailed explanation on testing the ignition. I will report back at the weekend on how I’ve got on.
