[QUOTE="sparkywig, post: 626571, member: 3541"] Do you have 12V to coil? Check the coil by testing from terminal 1 to a good earth with the ignition on. Can you swap a set of points into the distributor? With the distributor cap removed and the engine turned so the points are shut, remove the centre ht lead from the distributor cap and place on the engine block, turn the ignition on, do you get a spark from the coil ht lead when the points are opened? If you don't get a spark at the ht lead, but a big spark at the points the condenser is faulty. [/QUOTE]
