Cranked her over and thats all I got just cranking. Pulled No 1 plug to check spark and she fired up. Replaced the plug she fired up no probs. Then on the way home she did it again so I repeated my last and of we go again. On inspecting the plug I noticed a slight crack in the ceramic. WOULD THIS CAUSE THIS PROBLEM??????? Thanks Eddie

The condenser can break down when hot, and motor will stop. After a while it cools, then motor will start. Maybe the time it took for you to fiddle about, check plug, etc (15

Nursed it to a servo did a little thinking and a little fault finding. Figured my HT lead from the dizzy to the coil may have been breaking down. Drove to work
