Another "project" HELP!
Never had so many parts counter guys look at me so crazy as when I tell them I'm looking for ignition parts for my '70 534ci Ford C850 Pumper.
Getting lots of: "Five thirty HUH?" " You SURE?" etc etc etc.
17 k miles, turns over fine, 12 volts to coil, NO fire....lots of strange (to me) switches, solenoids and other gizmos on and under it, wondering if it has safety switches etc, from the Ward Lafrance half.
VIN C85LUG3081

That's a cool project. Looks like you'll have help driving it too!

Looks like you found some good answers in the "Large Truck" forum. Good luck!

check the condenser and if the coil is hot. Both or one of them may be dead
