Hi all

So car was all wonderful and lovely sat in the workshop. Went to start it the other day and it just turns over, won't fire. 

Changed points an condenser an rotor there's definitely a spark altho can't confirm if it's coming out the spark plugs.

There's definitely fuel getting into the carb and when acc pedal pressed its squirts nicely? 

Now, I did remove a dash bulb as buying some new led ones, so did have my hand up behind the dash, so thought maybe knocked a wire loose, but it's only ignition and dash lights really? Plus I looked and no wires are loose plus there wouldn't b a spark if the cables had come off?

So thought must be spark plugs..... All 4.....at the same time??? Seems unlikely.

So

What have I missed?

Have you taken the plugs out in turn and rested them against the block to see if you get a spark?

 

Are the washers in the correct order on the points spindle? I did that wrong once on a mate's Morris Minor and it wouldn't fire.
