97 1.6 How was it running at all? - Carrow
I've just replaced the Dizzy cap on a colleagues 216 16v as it was running like a bag of spanners. When I took the cap off, the carbon brush literally crumbled into dust & the main coil lead snapped clean off at the cap end (it had gone a mouldy green colour). I replaced the coil lead as the other 4 looked brand new and the car now starts first time and runs nicely now, but I am amazed how the car was even running in the first place!!
