I have a 1978 Beetle and it will not start. I have replaced a new coil, elec distrubitor, spark plug, injector and will not start. I am getting power to the coil and to the distrubitor, but i am not getting spark from anything. Please if you have a clue let me know. It was made in Mexico.

 

[/align]not for sure but try maybe the voltage regulator

 

take off distibutor cap , crank engine make sure rotor is turning, if so check connection thru distributor for short/grounding.
