Back firing problems

Poor Brenda has been running great for the last 18 months, she wouldn't start yesterday, I cleaned up the plugs and away she went. Today I drove a mile and she backfired and now won't start although is backfiring as I try. She was always a 1st time starter. Where will I start my quest for the solution? Thanks Roy

Which engine - OHC (slant Vauxhall) or CIH (upright Opel).

If it's the slant engine then which distributor - Delco (black cap) or Bosch (brown cap).

That'll do to begin with.

Thanks for the quick response, just so happens yesterdays rac man hadn't clipped the distributor cap on and it had slipped off. If only everything was that simple p:-)
