Dizzy issues 1275e - Sikosis - 11-09-2016

Hi guys. a friend of mine has a 1275e that is having spark issues.  no spark getting to the leads.

I have not seen the car as yet but when asked he says if he pulls off the Dizzy cap and tries to start the car the rotor spins very slowly. I am reluctant to just go out and buy a new one without checking it myself.

Does anyone have any ideas as to what would cause this and what we could do to try fix it?

If the rotor spins slower than normal the engine is being cranked slower than normal. This could be a battery that’s not up to the task or ignition timing that’s way too advanced.
