Hi Marc

I guess you checked the kill switch (if fitted) back in my era (70's/80's) I went out to loads of break downs for a kill switch !!!

I'm not sure what kind of ignition control you have, but back when I did my learning, I have had points stick together and keep me from moving on after parking.

I would start by looking for a proper spark.
