I have a 1960's John Deere 2010 with a Prestolite distributor.
I have power to the coil but am not getting a spark at the plugs. The coil tests at a low amount of ohms (possibly 5 or so).
I bought a new condenser, points, rotor, and distributor cap.
My question is the interior hookup of everything inside the distributor. I have the lead from the coil, one lead from the condenser/capacitor, and a post inside the distributor that it looks like it would hold the leads. It may have had a plastic insulator, which broke. I also have the points that has some sort of leaf spring with a notch on it.
What hooks to what? I think I am shorting something out.
I know this is a very basic question but this is my first time doing this.
