How can I tell if my Ford Falcon is having a problem?
If you pull a spark plug lead and attach it to a spare spark plug resting on the block and crank the engine over you should be able to see if there is spark jumping across the spark gap. It would be a good idea to try this to confirm the operation of the ignition system.
