My 9N ran fine until it stalled on a hayride pulling 16 people in a wagon last halloween. it would not fire up intil teh following morning. since then, it will fire up but only when cold, if hot...no spark. this is a 12V conversion by someone else that has been dependable for 15 years. Front Mount Distributor. so, with my fathers assist ( 79 year old Mech & Elec. Engineer) we changed the points, condenser, cap, plugs ( exhaust maifold gaskets while we were feeling ambitious) and a 12V coil. when we hit the starter, NO SPARK. Voltage at teh coil was 6v. Don't know if the points were open or closed. since i saw 6v at the coil, i assumed i needed a 6v coil and returned the 12v coil for a 6v coil. we now have 2v at the coil with NO Spark. i've got 40 years of replacing points and the like and i am lost as to why no spark. thanks for any help
