thanks all. problem. car running like it was not firing on all cylinders,even though it would rev up the range but still missing.thought it would be ignition,so new points,condenser, re set timing no change.switched coil,dist and ballast resistor from 2nd car, no change.disconected over run fuel cut off sol,bottom sol no change. plenty fuel to and return from injection pump and to cold start sol.disconnected lines from injectors to see if fuel coming to injectors.yes but amounts seemed so small that i thought no way is the pump working correctly.put on injector to fuel lines to observe if any spray, none. it must be the pump.decided to take out pump.this is a task that must rank as the most difficult of all.made some local calls here in ireland but neg on all fronts for repairs.one knowlegable bloke asked me did i try a new set of plugs?
? .no i did'nt as the plugs looked exellent.he said these cars are notorious for fouling the plugs.had a look at the injector internals ,checked te rack etc. put back in injector(4hrs work), new set of plugs,re-set points and timing.after some time engine fires and runs smoothly.i don't know what solved the problem ,but i can assure u the plugs discarded appeared perfect propper gap,some black soot but nothing alarming, could be seen sparking when removed and earthed. thanks for all the help. contacted Tower but on holidays for another 2 weeks. i hope car will keep running and fault wont reacur.
