Thanks gentlemen,
There are points/condensor, all that crap I haven' t dealt with since
my 79 Ford. I did check the micro switch but it disengages the starter
too when enganged so not that. The cap and rotor looked good then the
skies opened up so I'll check the points and again for a spark
tomorrow. One question which is the negative on the coil...both
terminals when tapped with the positive lead of the VOM showed
positive?
Thanks for your help...momma says no money for fixing this toy til I
paint the house.
The lead to the points should be negative. If you have 12v on both sides
then the points are open. Turn the engine a little and see if you ever get
less than 12v. If never, then the points are always open. Unless the coild
comes from a CDI module.
