Default Thank You ByTheLake No Spark Resolved!

Thank You for giving me directions in how to approach this no spark problem. Up until now, I didn't even know how the system worked. Now I do. Kind of anyhow. This morning I did the last step you gave me in testing the points wire for continuity and I found the problem. The points wire wasn't plugged into the coil, it was plugged into the magnetic switch and the coil wire was plugged into the connection meant for magnetic switch. I can sure understand now how you can't just plug like colored wires together and hope for the best. It takes a little understanding how it works. Now that I have plenty of fire I just have to go back and do some reading on timing...
Thank You ByTheLake!
Steve
