ok just been out with the test light, both sides of the coil has power with ingition on.

both pins in injector plug has power when ignition is on.

only thing i can think of now is that the late model vp dizzy and vn dizzy wiring is differnt. ( the new dizzy i got was to suit later model v8s so had a differnt connector plug so re wired it to suit the vn wiring harness red wire + black wire- and green wire 0.

anyone able to help?
