Thumbs up

i just bought a 77 scorpion whip
they said it ran last year but got it home an cant get spark
there an some wires off the kill switch is not hooked up
the 2 wires that im sure go to it if i put them together still nothing
but if i touch the wires together while a freind pulls then there's spark
any ideas on what it could be
iv'e checked the points setting an there to specs
any info would be nice

loren41,
what kind of engine does it have ? let's start there.

something else the vintage section run by "danr the great" is probably where you should post this request.

if when you tie the wires together you get spark and when you hook them to switch there is non then i would say it is the switch. that is most likely the reason they were unhooked.
