DVD3500 there are no fans on mine

Rob, gland, tomorrow is a new day, and hopefully a bit warmer, I shall start checking your idea's out, many thanks for your help
-
Yes that's what is beginning to worry me could the supplier have sent the wrong loom, 3.0ohms is that across the + and - terms
my coils measure 3.9 and 3.5ohms
-
Cheers "gland" I was sure mine is not ballasted, although I am on my third coil pic below, I have always purchased 12v Lucas coils, this is the coil I was running when I broke down, the first thing I checked was to see if it was hot, I would say hand temp. the car had a new loom when it was restored back in 2015

HI yes all three webers are clean and the jets blown through
-
no points or condenser all electronic
-
the rev counter is cable driven from the dizzy
I for forgot to say above the coil was swopped also

I'm not sure if this should be in 'elctrics', any way, I was out for a spin last weekend in my MK3 GT6 when i noticed a misfire, about 3k then after a stop at a road junction it missed again about 2k, then a mile up the road it just died. on trying to restart, it would only fire then die many times, once I got it home I started from the beginning clean plugs, check fuel and filter, check for sparks, though not very good, then a friend said ignition switch 'sod off say's I' the key works the starter works, any way I jump from the battery to the coil, jump in the car hit the starter and it runs blinking great at this point my friend has this stupid grin, how, what is wrong, I have a new switch in the post, any ideas guys.

Very neat Baxter, are you still running with no misfire now ?

Happy year. Guys, when I did my mk3 I sent the speedo to speedy cables, they serviced and recalibrate it, to suit my diff and wheels
-
How many nuts and washers have you dropped down the grill
-
I used H-H for the GT6 a full electronic make over of the dizzy, it's fantastic now.

This cable is 3" longer than STD
and Speedo Drive https://rimmerbros.com/Item--i-120694
Jason the inhibitor switches are operated via the gear lever remote as the photo shows

Hi I need a new tailgate trim for my MK3 GT6, was looking at Rimmer's part number 610657
https://rimmerbros.com/Item--i-GRID008148
I found this to be slightly to tall last time, the tail gate didn't like closing, anybody have any other suggestions please

Update, new ignition switch fitted "gland" you were right it still wont run,
So Iv'e checked volts to coil , +ve ignition on, NO volts and NO volts at -ve also,
Turn key to crank motor 12v +ve , and 12volts -ve,
fit a temp feed from battery to +ve and car runs great
checked the wire from coil +ve to starter relay no breaks or shorts this is the white/yellow wire
