No more spark from coil

Post by Tsundzukani »

I need some advice. Well i was driving my car today and the engine suddenly died and couldn't start. As i looked into it, i found that there's no spark from the coil by the way its an opel kadett 1.6 carb...there's a green wire that comes from the module and connects to the negative side of the coil and currently isn't working i don't know what else to check please advice

Dude, this is an AIRCOOLED Group, for Volkswagen Beetles, Kombi's, Variants, etc. Not Opels.
Maybe just buy a new coil from Midas.

Well there's the problem you asking questions from guys who don't usually deal
with the kind of car you have
maybe try on an Opel group i am sure those guys will help you out much easier

Dont know much about opel but check if you have power on the + side of the coil. Might be as simple as fuse that blew
