from what engine bay.. 2 series LH2.4 is completely different loom than from a 7 or 9 series.

you say you're trying to get it to spark. what flywheel did you use? did you use the TDC sensor located just above the bellhousing; bolted to the B230FT engine etc.

yes useing the right flywheel with the crank senor on the back of the block got power to the coil but still no spark

leads in correct order?

have you mounted the flywheel correctly? it fits in multiple ways but the TDC marks have to be in the correct location

Did you get it right in the end? The blank in the flywheel must be in the starter motor hole when the engine is at TDC.

cheers
