Hi everyone-again, i posted the below post the other day, and am about to drive over to my dad's and try what was suggested. However, I just had a thought so I wanted to ask before I went over to his house. ---Are there any "safety ignition switches" on a 1974 cub that could be responsible for what is happening?---
thanks, davidHi everyone,
I searched past posts and followed past advice but have still not had success with this problem.
My dad was drving his cub to the barn after cutting grass, and went to shift to 3rd gear and the tractor died out, and would not crank again. We checked, there was no spark at plugs, pulled the dist. points were pitted. We replaced points, replaced condenser, tested the coil(OK), tested voltage at + side of coil with key on(have 12v-OK, cleaned/checked connections, dist. shaft is turning, reassembled. Still no spark. Could there be something grounding in the distributor area? There is a little play in the shaft, if this is worn can it ground out something? Please help, thanks, da
