Is the throttle pot set up correctly?

Also, the MAF on these can often also be adjusted (check to see what type is fitted)

These base settings are essential to correct operation on these units.

Don't think have one of those. It's a standard dissy and coil.
Not seen an amplifier around the engine bay at all.

Later setups had the amp mounted onto the side of the dizzy below the vac advance unit (Lucas 35DLM8 from memory).

Also, check TDC using the old screwdriver method as I have seen a few crank pulley markings which are MILES off.
