I've tried about every conceivable way to arrange these wires, however I cannot get ANY spark, at ALL, except for directly from the coil. This has been the problem with TWO different distributors.
What we have here:
-Aftermarket distributor (the piece of junk OEM Delco didnt work either)
-Petronix electronic ignition, wired exactly as the manual said to, also tried in other configurations (the garbage points setup also didnt work)
-New Plugs
-New Wires
-12V lead from the battery to the + side of the coil
Any thoughts? Please spare me lectures on timing, thats not an issue we're facing yet. The issue is that there is ZERO, absolutly no spark making it to the plugs under any conditions, period, regardless of coil setup or wiring.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
