My God I got a good Laugh out of that one Did I mention that I love Mags. H4 to be exact.I take it this came off the M you are working on . Ok If you spin this by hand set it on the bench with the LH side looking at the dist cap lying on the table take the coil wire out of the dist cap and hold it about 1/4 " away the screw on the side and trip the impulse by hand CW trip I hope you should get spark If you hook it up to the tractor and there is no wire hooked to the screw on the side you should have spark. IF YOU DONT I would say one of the wires that hook to the condenser is shorted and when you hook it up to the tractor its grounding it almost like if you pushed in on the switch If this is the case You need to check the wires at the condenser two of them and the one at the points . I dont know for sure if that would happen but it might and check it. I would have made you a deal on parts or a rebuilt mag You Nice people just have to ask. JON
