Hiya :wink:
Is it just 'Clicking' when you try to turn it over or is it turning over and not catching?

Right.
Did you try taking off the distributor cap and drying it out with a tissue?
Also same with the main connection on the coil?
Very wet weather recently so could be dampness.

Also, if you have a spare spark plug you could take off a plug lead from the plug end on the car,put the spare into the lead and put against the block,metal. And turn it over again and see if there is a spark.

It might be worth looking into getting an electronic ignition kit for her.
Makes it VERY reliable :wink:
Aldon ignitor is a good one or Lumenition Magnetronic.
Did the conversion on my Hornet and never ever failed to start after that.
