First of all I have ruled out fuel, my problem is spark. I replaced the coil, distributor cap, rotor, and the condenser. Initially I pulled a spark plug from the head and grounded it to check the spark. None. I took a meter and checked the continuity from the points all the way to the battery including the resistor. In a desperate attempt, I stuck a screwdriver in the spark plug wire and grabbed the metal shank while my wife turned the key. Kind of figured this was her chance to get even for the stupid thing I would probably do in the future. Needless to say she was deeply dissapointed. Thank God! I even took the wire from the switch (the one that goes to the coil via the resistor) and touched it to the positive side of the battery while the points were exposed to see if there was spark while cranking the starter. Still nothing. Ireally like my Farmall, but I'm so frustrated I could spit nails. Can someone tell me what I must have missed?
