Here is a quick check of the system. Put it in neutral. Have a screwdriver in hand. Turn on the Ignition. Stand next to the tractor (Dist side). Pull the big spark carrying wire from the center of the distributor, and position it so that it is 1/4 inch away from the block. Use tape to do this so you don't get shocked. place the screw driver on the nut with the wire attached on the side of the distributor (goes to the coil). Touch the tip to the side of the distributor (shorting the wire and terminal to ground. Then pull it off the nut. A fat spark should jump from the coil wire to the block. A small spark will happen at the screwdriver. If this happens, the points need to be looked at (under the black cover under the rotor). If no spark, then the points may be closed, and need cleaning adjustment.
Point gap is .020" with the four lobe cam turned so that it is pushing them open (high point)
If this fails to make a spark, the coil may be bad. good luck, JimN
