October 7, 200816 yr comment_262663 That's the reason I save anything of importance on a seperate hard drive, away from the operating system. If the main drive crashes, I still have my files.Or you could all just get Macs, and they'd never crash...:nervous: Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/29578-cant-get-a-spark/?&page=2#findComment-262663 Share on other sites More sharing options...

October 7, 200816 yr Author comment_262677 Now now guys, I'm a windows kinda guy! As far as the "no spark" situation goes, it ended up being something in the distributor. I switched to another one and she fired right up!! I had the dizzy lying around, I got it from napa and never thought it worked as well as my ZX boneyard find. The napa dizzy came with a off brand module (it doesn't have any nissan/12-80 on it and the cover is made of cardboard that can be pryed back to see the inner working) plus the model# is somewhat different than the ZX dizzy. I'll have to post some picsThank you everyone for your help, if anyone runs into these problems, Blue's page helped out a bunch!!

October 8, 200816 yr comment_262723 Congrats Flash on working the spark issue out. Nothing better than figuring something out and hearing that 6 running again. As far as the ribbing about Macs, I'm just saying, I've used Macs exclusively since the first computer I ever owned, and I've never said the words "my computers broke", or "my computers out getting fixed". Once a year a Mac freezes, you unplug it, and its fine. Just my experience, and no I don't have my whole retirement tied up in Apple stock, before anyone asks.
