I dont like to use emery cloth or sandpaper type products on points cuz of the residue it can leave. Also try it with the kill wire removed in case it has a short somewhere but have her jury rigged so you can attach a ground to the kill stud if necessary.

Let us know, best wishes n God Bless John T
