There is a good chance that its not your points . It is kind of a Rube Goldberg set up getting contact from the points to the copper strip to the concave screw to the pig tail on the coil .
I have no problem with my 8N that has points . It sits outside in the weather and may not be started for months , but it starts with no problem .
I did rebuild and test the distributor on the bench , then added the 4 gaskets with some sealer for a water tight fit . I remember having to trim the gaskets some .

I did convert the square can coil to a no resistor needed 12v round can . I think this is a weak link for this system .
I am an advocate for the EI unit since it is a better system , if it is in your budget . It works perfect or it doesn't work at all and not many properly install EI systems have failed . Voltage spikes in jump starting can be fatal .

There is also a gasket ( aka dust shield ) that goes between the points and rotor .
