Daimler V8 Starting Issues

Hi all,

Had my Daimler V8 out as it had been sitting a while and noticed it started missing. Naturally, I thought (as per usual), it has carboned up as it had been only in and out of the garage. Did the usual - clean plugs, points and re-gap etc. but to no avail, also flushed lines and new fuel (as had been sitting a while, so just good maintenance). Started up and was still missing.

The other day I had it out (still missing) and then it wouldn’t start at all. Has orange spark - so I’m guessing perhaps coil or condenser and fuel (cleaned carbs as well).

It was going fine beforehand. Not even firing at all now, as it started to before…

Coil or condenser? Or is there something simple I’m missing here?

Thanks in advance!

If the spark isnt good, you would suspect condensor, points, coil, wiring.,rotor & cap?

a “spark tester” is a very cheap tool that is helpful,

I would attend each above item one at a time, to systematically eliminate the fault
