Here is a troubleshooting method for checking your ignition system posted by Wayne Swenson last month. No spark? Clean and dry the distributor
cap. The following info is assuming a battery-coil ignition.

1. Is there battery voltage at the coil? Use a
test lite or volt meter.
2. Is there battery voltage at the points? Use
test lite or volt meter.
3. Remove distributor cap, rotor, points cover
& remove the coil wire from the distributor cap & put it within 1/4" of a ground.
4. With points closed & ignition switch on, snap the points open a few times and watch for spark at the coil wire end.
5. No Spark, may have burned or dirty points, a bad condenser, or a bad coil. Coil primary (battery voltage) wire to points must be attached to + on the coil if your battery + grounded.

You may want to run off a copy of this for your files. Hal
