jimt1971 237 #2 Posted April 9, 2012 Mark when working on techy the first thing you want to do is replace the points and condensor. Once you do that you should have your spark again. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wheelhorse656 20 #3 Posted April 9, 2012 You more than likly have a weak condenser I have the points and condencers for $5 each if you are intreasted. Also make sure your points and condencer are gaped a 18 to 20 thousenths . Mabey you arnt getting fuel threw the carb or mabey a bad plug? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wheelhorse656 20 #5 Posted April 9, 2012 It should be autolight 458 or RJ19lm I Like the 458 better it seems to make the engines run a bit better but that just my HO. :razz: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
