I have a Farmall A that I replaced the mag coil & condensor becuase when it would run for about 1.5 hrs it would quit on me. I took the mag out to replace the coil and put it all back together and timed it, and it started but was running pretty rough, which is what I expected. I went to adjust the mag to smooth it out and it quit running. Now when I try to start it it will not start at all. I checked the mag again and when I try to time it by lining the up the mag and rotor in the number 1 position I can not get to line up. It seems like the mag and rotor are either in the 12pm or 2pm position and I can not get it to line up with number one. My timing marks are on and #1 pistion is at TDC. Is there a chance the magneto could have jumped and wil lnot line up anymore? There is a tremendous amount of play in the mag when I try to line it up but I just can't seem to get it in time. Am I doing something wrong. Feeling frustrated, this has gone on for a couple of weeks and I cannot get my tractor running again. I appreciate anyone's help and wisdom. Thank you
