Bringselpup. The loader does present issues. THere is no two ways around it (so to speak). The symptoms you dessribe are exactly that issue. If you take off the nut holding the wire to the distributor terminal, turn on the key, and tap that wire against a ground, the coil will flash high voltage every time the contact is made and broken. Thhat is what is happening with the key, you are breaking the coil circuit. The reason it does not spark to a plug wire, only the coil wire, is that the rotor must be pointing to the correct plug terminal to have that happen, and it isn't. Do this: with all wires attached correctly, open the cap, and take the rotor out. Look in the distributor, and find the points. with the ign. off, use a small screw driver to gently pry open the points (away from the cam) and insert a flat plastic knife blade between the points. This holds them open, and should allow the key off test you performed earlier to stop working. If the key off test still produces spark on the coil wire, the insulator is not put in correctly. From inside to outside it is a stack of parts as follows. Nut lock washer flat washer point spring and (possibly) flat copper conductor. flat washer Inside insulator distributor wall outside insulator flat washer lock washer nut flat washer terminal to coil pos flat washer lock washer nut Some of these parts might be missing, but if the tiny bolt, or the conductors touch the wall, it will not run. The plastic insulator must be kind of a bushing in the hole in the distributor. Good luck with the loader in the road, JimN

Today's Featured Article - The Cletrac General GG and the BF Avery A - A Bit of History - by Mike Ballash.
