went to do a compression test on my car, didnt unclip the dizzy plug went to turn the car on but it would just crank, did i break the distributor, if i did can they be rebuilt or just look for a 2nd hand part its a ek4 sir
 
I did the same, it was the dizzy in my case.. bought a DIZZY from R-motion
 
The coil is an internal part of the dizzy, and usually the part that fails.

People often replace distributors when they only need a £15 part that takes 10 minutes to fit.
 
ended up getting it sorted you were right, it was the coil that died, bought one in the motor factors for 30euro had a pig of a job getting thescrew that holds the rotor wheel in place ended up having to put it on a vice and get it that way, started up first go again so thanks.
