I'll butt in even though I'm not MagMan.

Put the old magneto on your tractor and see if it starts. Just because it is old and has been sitting is no reason to think it will not work.

but first I would put points, condenser, a new cap and wires on the distributor you have. Just because it quit firing is no reason to give up on the system used on more tractors and cars than any other. They are cheap to fix. A new coil is only $25 or so.

All that said, I prefer a good magneto.

So remember if you get the magneto rebuilt and put i ton the tractor and the problem is the sparkplugs it still won't start.
