appreciate any input on how to trouble shoot this problem thank you


First, confirm all connections & screw terminals are clean & tight.

It's almost always the Power Pack on the 1973's... especially if it's
the original.

Sometimes you can get it to fire by warming the pack in the sun or with
a heat lamp.
