Listers, I bought a new ign module, read the instructions and it said to do the screws up to a certain torque. Of course my screws were a little loose, a few turns and I had power throughout the rev range. But on the way to work it totally died again, took the module off, tightened up the bolts and we're off again.
The module has a silicon heat sink gel on the bottom which has turned brown!! Possible this is causing hassles. Or some kind of earth fault. Maybe I'll just bin the old module, clean up the dizzy and all will be good.
