I have almost finished getting all of the electrics working on my 1975 spit
1500 and will soon be moving on the try and start the beast!!!! I have a
niggly problem though. The ignition light doesn't come on when I turn the
ignition, The way I understand it should come on and stay on until about 620
RPM then go off. Now I know the light and the wiring up to the alternator
works as I have tested it. Why question is, Why isn't it working ??? has my
alternator had it?? is there a relay or anything in the alternator which is
doing this?? any suggestions will be helpful

Also any advise on how to start a car that probably hasn't started for a
while??

Cheers

Tom
