I tried to get my new engine going for a couple hours tonight and it just cranks, no fire.
Got fuel to the carbs, but no spark at the plugs (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Checked the coil and I get 12V off each side to ground, is this correct? What is next in the diagnosis...what else can I check? |

Hi,
Replace the points. They are plated and once they have pitting, they are pretty much done and will never stay clean. New points cost $4.00 Go get some....get two sets so you always have a new set on hand. Rich |
