just got my motor back from la products ran perfect up there took it home bolted it up and now it will not fire, it is getting fuel and spark out of the coil, even went n bought a new one just to make sure, still will not fire just cranks n cranks, any idea

What carb? If a 34pict do you have 12 volts from the ignition switch to the electromagnetic cut off valve (16). If you don’t it won’t allow gas into the carb.

I think I figured out the issue.

Could be the points or if it electronic then you might of hooked it up to your coil backwards.

I see bill and brad figured it out, I know you can too steve, just think hard.... I'd take the entire buggy up there and make them get it running, free of charge, honestly....

id love to but dont have a trailer i got the day off tomorrow so im a c what i can do i have tried everything possible i run a parts store n worked on cars all my life i know what im doing but alot of this vw stuff does not make alot of sense to me

Well , there's your problem. I know a lot of top notch line mechanics that are baffled by an ac vw. Think simpler! dont overlook the obvious.

Is it just cranking and not even trying to hit?
do you have 12 volts going to the +side of the coil? for sure?
Is it cranking fast enough?
Whats it do if you try a good squirt of starting fluid in the carb?
Are the ignition components Bosch?
Almost gotta be a wiring or getting fuel to carb issue if it ran on the stand and nothing has changed but it wont fire on the buggy.

good luck with it.
Larry

Maybe even a wire or two crossed

its cranking like it should b, if i squirt starting fluid in it it just does the same thing i can see the fuel going down the carb so i know its not starving for fuel and all the componets r not bosch

Its spark. Something is not right. Take a aligator clip wire and connect it to the + on coil, then run it to the + on the starter and crank it. That will insure power to the coil. These motors are super simple air, fuel, spark, noise.

"Lets go get stupid"

i took two wires hooked them to the positive terminal on the batt n put switches on them put one on starter and one on coil tried it that way n still nothin wil crank n crank n crank but will not start and it is getting fuel perfectly

I figured it out right after I posted. I suppose I am accustomed to trying to help people out with out leaving comments that are of no help. It is very possiable the poster does not know LAs Rep.

You mentioned you get spark out of the coil. Are you actually getting spark to the plugs? have you pulled the plugs to check to see if they are fouled or flooded out with gas? Also are you sure the distributer is tight and has not turned on you?

yes i have pulled the plugs and they r not fowled n the caps didnt turn n there is spark comin from the coil but not to the plugs

_________________

With the distributer cap off does the distributer turn. Is the rotor on top of the distributer? Have you tryed a different rotor and or distributer cap? Have you checked to see if the the cap is cracked and the spark is going straight to ground bypassing the plugs?

with cap off rotor button turns it is on top of the distributer n cap is not cracked, just went n bought brand new bosch coil n still nothin

_________________

Inside the cap there is a contact point below the coil wire connection . The rotor spring clip touchs it. Is it stiil there? Is your rotor spring clip bent up enough to touch it. Some rotors have a resister between the spring clip and the outer contact swipe tip. Measure it with an OHM meter to be sure you have continuity. If you want call me at 216-695-0733

With the cap off. Can you turn the rotor button by hand? If so then your distributer has lifted up and is not locked into your drive gear. Seen this happen a few times. Brackets bend or your gear doesn't have washers under it.JMO
