The capacitor (condenser) is new and check to grd ok. I just went to check continuity grounding against Coil case to any metal parts of the body of forklift, that check out good. This is how I have the ignition coil and distributor wires: from battery (12+) go to starter then from there it goes to amp/volt gauge black 10ga wire, coming out of the amp/volt gauge red 10ga wire go to alternator, there's also another #12ga red with white go to ignition switch, so everytime I turn on the switch 12v power provided to the (+) side of the coil this also provide power to turn on the LP coil to open up ( not sure if this is right) but it was my thinking that if I provided power to both the coil ignition and to the LP coil if I have spark it would get combustion. So not sure where I went wrong on this. Any Help to clear this problem would be greatly appreciated.
