Hi, First post. I have an 86 SVO and i recently did a new clutch and all the goodies, drove for a week fine so i know i didnt mess anything up downstairs. Then i replaced the cap and rotor and drove fine for a day and a half, took it out the next morning and got up the road and it just died right in the middle of the intersection, pushed it home no clue what's wrong, Ive read other threads but none say that it drove fine first before dying all say it won't start off the bat. Thanks

Shoot some starting fluid to it, just a shot, not much, all you want to know right now is if it starts with the shot then it's a fuel problem, if not it would be an ignition problem.

Im not getting any spark, replaced the coil after and still nothing. wiring is where I get confused on cars. TFI, fuse link, PIP, inertia switch? i don't know and have no clue where to find a fuse link.
