Have gaskets, condensers, & other parts and parts breakdown and service. No rebuild kits. Do you have Case or Bosch mag? Cleaned and file points yet? Make sure wire from points to coil isn't touching ground or bad.

Ok, Doug. You should have a good blue spark that will jump 1/8-1/4". Should have good spark plug wires and spark plugs that fire clean. Your timing could be off some. If you don't have a good blue spark could be condenser. If you have good blue spark, check the fuel system, carburetor, air cleaner or intake too. Clean the carbon off dist. disc well with some fine scotchbrite. Clean and set points again. Wire with varnished cloth insulation in mag from points to coil is prone to leak because of age. Replace or cover with heat shrink tubing.

ok this is the deal. i had a sleeve o ring leak last fall. so i parked it for the winter. it had the same spark b4 as it does now. it ran great. then i got it fixed and got it to run but last fall i could advance and retard it as much as i wanted. now there is a very find band where it will run and thats advanced all the way. i never did anything to my ignition system no changes or movement of it. it has new plugs and wires. points ar new. every i have cleaned and any bad wires heat shrinked tubing on them. see if this helps any

Ok, Doug, Maybe the points cover isn't engaging in the slots in advance sleeve correctly or could dogs on cover be broke off? Advance sleeve may need to be cleaned and lubed some. Is the points cam worn?

Did you check timing again? Just to be sure. Impulse is kicking out right? Not still clicking after idled up is it? Hard to say without being there?
