    Hello everyone and thanks for the add just bought my first Sambar 1995 4wd empi, its a non starter and narrowed it down to no spark, done all the usal checks fuse, distributor cap ect but it seems I am getting no power to the coil. The previous owner had a play and removed the ignition barrel but lost it!! from viewing on line apart from the main plug that sits on the bottom there are two extra plugs that plug in does anyone know what these are for many thanks

    Ok, so we are being confused by the inconsistencies of our common language. Not quite sure what an ignition barrel is, or where it is.

    Any chance of a clarifying photo?

    I’d say that the black one is the switch to say the key is in the lock.

    Hopefully someone more knowledgeable on the Subies can give you an exact answer.

    Check out the wiring diagram in the manual listed in the resources section of this forum.

    I assume that it is the same as the one on jdmfsm.info, but for some reason I have no access to that link..

    rkrenicki said the same thing. I sent a message to Kevin to see if I did something wrong when I loaded it. You should still be able to find it on the site in rkrenicki’s post.

    Try it again when you get a chance. Kevin said he changed some permissions.

    Nope, thanks for looking into it, but still permission denied. I have everything but chapter 4. for some reason it didn't download properly.
