does anyone know the numbers for points, cond, cap and rotor by standerd ign. Blue streak points. these are the only points that hold up in my 88 wellcraft that i fish off the jersey coast. my tractor cap and rotor are burnt and i have not even got into look and the points contact thanks to that large loader frame and a bad leg. (FUN) I saw a 2n post about bluestreak in here.
i was knocking small trees down last night with the loader up in air and motor starting to run rough. i had plan on new ign parts just not got to it yet.
any thoughts on NGK plugs? i want to get the best so when it is up on the mountain in the catskills i not have any problems.
 
Points - FD 8081
Cond - FD 75
NGK Plugs 3112
Can't help w/the other parts you mention as I don't have that info available right now.
I have been having very good luck w/NGKs in all 5 Fords from a '43N to a 3000. The 3000 has always been hard to start, had to feather the throttle & choke at the same time & start 5-6 times before it would finally take off & run up to speed. Ditched the new Autolites & installed NGKs & problem solved!
 
the 70 ford 4000 su has a 201cid 3 cylinder engine, those points are not for the 3 cylinder, i think they for the 4 cylinder.
i have located all the Blue streak ignition points, cap, and rotor#s if anyone is interested in the numbers.
next i want to make sure this NGK 2635 spark plug is the correct heat range plug for this old engine. has anyone used ngk plugs in there 3 cylinder 201 engine and can confirm this number or suggest another number?
 
My apologies! You're right, the ones I gave you are for the 4 cylinder. For my 3000 I use (if I can read my writing!):
Plugs NGK B4ES #4129
Points FD-6769X (not sure about the X)
Condenser FD-71
Cap FA350
Rotor FD-126
