Thanks to all those who helped me get the N running again. I especially remember Dell, Stumppuller, and Peter, but appreciate all inputs. My problem turned out to be the same thing that plagues many of us who inherit a fine machine, but not the history. Many things started going wrong at once, not just one thing. The final fix was the 12volt coil, using the existing resistor. All components changed seemed to fix it a little bit better, but not quite right. The carb absolutely needed the rebuild. The points and wires were shot. All gaskets nearly non-existent. When I put it all together, it was still hard starting. Replaced the coil with 12 volt model. Now it starts within the first couple revs if fuel is already there. Thanks again. I have a new problem in a separate post.
