after cussing and fussing, i pulled a dist off a parts Super C C123 motor i had in the boneyard.. cleaned it up and replaced the points and condenser. while i was working on rebuilding the parts dist, Old, the tractor guru, called and we troubled shooted the system.
well, I put in the rebuilt dist and started testing the plugs. tractor fired on just #1, hooked #3, tractor tried to start. hooked up #4 tractor started on 3 cylinders. hooked up #2 Charlene started. had to adjust the timing just a little, motor smooth out and now runs real smooth.
after taking off the old dist, i found that i could not turn it by hand. gonna tare into it to see what the problem might be.
thanks for all the input and advice and thanks again to Kub6040 and Old.
Charlene, the 340 lives again.
