I am still trying to get my 300 running so I can find out what else is wrong with it. I rebuilt the H4 magneto on my H a couple of years ago with help from Janicholson and others but I have no distributor experience. I have been reading in the archives. I have a 6V coil and I bought a resistor that was supposed to reduce the voltage from the 12V battery to 6V. However when I hook it up it shows 12V both coming into and going out of the resistor and on both sides of the coil, which does not seem right. The wire on the - terminal on the coil is the one that is heading to the battery, does the coil know which lead I am hooking to it or does it not matter? I sanded the points but was not able to get a spark from them. Should I just go ahead and replace the points, condenser and coil or should I start with just one of them? Any advice will be much appreciated. Zach
