Default Re: 1972 ford capri 1600 won’t start, any help much appreciated

This is like pulling teeth, anyway onward & upward.

it goes click when I turn the key to start it
This sort of says that the starter motor is not cranking the engine over.

Quote:
yeah the starter motor works
Does this mean it used to work or it does crank the engine over?

Cranking is different to the engine actually starting.

All my old Escorts had bendix starters and sneaky contacts in the solenoids to by-pass the coil ballast, do you know what your's has?

Anything you don't know how to answer just ask.
