My B died on me. I pulled a spark plug to see if was getting any spark and I'm not getting anything. Is it possible that my magneto died on me? Everything else looks and works fine, but I have no clue on how to check the magneto. It may be time to go to one of those electronic ignition distributors.

Thats your desicion but I would not waste the money. Fix the mag. Take the coil wire out of the dist cap and hold it close to the screw on the side about a 1/4" away and spin her over and look for spark. You may want to unhook the wire to that screw to rull out switch. And try a new coil wire to rull that out. Let me know what you get. and what color . If you dont go with points and condenser then if still no spark go to the coil. JON

O.K., When I hold the Magneto wire close to the screw, and I mean close (all most touching) it gives me a very faint white spark.
