Dies after running a few seconds at idle or throttle Used 2 different mags, one with good impulse, the other bad impulse, did initial timing at 30 degrees as specified on both, tried retarding and advancing spark by moving rotor 1 tooth off in each direction. Yes, removed the rod and drilled through the brass fitting and front of the cap, then tapped the brass and installed a bolt with the coil wire attached. Tried both solid and resistor coil wires. Removed and ground/polished points to new condition.
Now, you mention condensers. I used the mag condensers and also tried an old automotive condenser but not necessarily matched to the coil so there is a possibility.

Even if I have to wind up learning how to rebuild mags.

Using bolts to draw the two halves together will damage the PTO
