I have three ignition switches and it does it with all three. I also don't have power from the interlock solenoid but I can't find it and I don't know what it looks like. Russ

I have no power to either side of the ballast resistor. The Black/Red stripe wire from the ignition switch goes to the ballast resistor and is dead.

Hello. I have a 1975 B210 with the a14 engine manual trans. I parked it for lunch the other day and it would not start afterwards. In messing with it, if I turn the ignition switch to start, the car will turn over and start. Once I let off of the switch, it promptly dies. I can start it and turn the switch to disengage the starter and it will continue to run but once I completely back off of the switch to the run position, it dies. On the wiring on the back of the ignition switch, I have no power to the Yellow/Black stripe wire or the Black/Red stripe wire when the ignition switch is in the run position. The wiring Diagram shows the Yellow/Black stripe wire goes to the Interlock Relay. I can't find this relay and I think this is the problem. Any help locating this relay or figuring out the problem would be greatly appreciated.

First Off, Thank you for the responses. I have decided to go with the Weber 32/36 carb with the electric choke. I'm still waiting to hear from Pertronix about the electronic ignition. As for looking for the remote igniter EI or the matchbox, these cars are nowhere to be found around here anymore and am not sure what to get online and not get screwed with chinese knock off crap. I just want my B210 to move a little faster like it should. I will take it for the 20 minute highway drive this weekend and check the plugs, but will check the timing and vavle lash first (I check them cold). Any ideas on maybe getting a header and more aggresive cam? Any input you give is appriciated.

Hello. I have 3 B210 hatchbacks (yes they were hard to find) with plans on a KA in one and a SR20 in the other. I need to ask about the one I want to daily drive. It is a 1975 and has an A14 motor and I upgraded it to a 5 speed already but it has no acceleration and I feel it is in the carb. The timing and point gap are good even though I would like to change it to electronic ignition. So my questions to the group are: Is there an inexpensive bolt on carb upgrade? What electronic ignition would you recommend for an upgrade? I fell in love with these B210's back in the early 80's when I bought my first one and took it to Okinawa, Japan where I got stationed for 4 years. These cars are allot of fun to drive, but I remember mine had allot more acceleration in the day. Also, I can't go anywhere without someone commenting "I havn't seen one of those cars in years". Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated. Russ Los Lunas, NM

Hello Everyone. I have a 1975 B210 with an A14 motor and want to put a better carb on it. Any suggestions?
