[thirdjoker 0]

Well, I was so pleased. 1st start of the tractor I bought and completely went through.no fire. new coil,points and condenser. Found single wire key switch bad. disconnected the wire at points. Fired right up. Ran for a good 5 minutes or so. I was able to adjust the carb. ran it slow and fast. I went to adjust the points, put a wrench on the nut to loosen it, engine shut off. Now I have no spark . I had an old condenser,replaced it - no spark. any ideas? I don't have another condenser until tomorrow.

UP DATE !!! great news... I found the wire on the new points ( the wire on the arm off the points to the base) had come off.Swapped the old parts back on after cleaning the points:D. It's running great. I had bought this last December. Being overseas a lot has kept me from finishing it. until now.
