Got to be worth checking if that fuel pump is working first , before moving on.
IF it is working , then it will , almost certainly , be the distributor since you have checked the CPS plug and cambelt.

I have removed the details of your address and phone number from the post as the garage is open to anyone to see, even the public.
I have kept your details, so will give you a call in the morning

Could it be the main 100amp fuse in the engine bay fuse box

Thanks Trev, will see you in the morning.
I checked the fuel cut off and it has not popped but maybe I should remove the trim and check the wiring. It would certainly be good to find out if the pump is working. I don't think it is but not sure how to check for certain. I did have a look at the fuses and they all seem to be ok.

It appears that it is the dizzy, no spark and I could hear the pump running.
