Rustred, I would just ask that you look at the number of post a person has to see if he is new here, he even tells you he is new. Then try to just focus on answering the problem he has posted about and not add other interjections. Your last sentence says ..As this is getting to be that young people have no clue.. So if he is a young person which you or I do not know and he reads that what do you think he will take away from that? You may have in your head thought that you were just applying that comment to what he knows about mechanical things. In fact he could easily take it as a slam to the intelligence of everyone he knows. My post is information only, not commentary. As to how I directed him to approach his problem, sure you have probably looked at dozens of sets of points in your lifetime. He maybe has never looked at any. In the end if he gets the wire going to the distributor to turn the test light on and off as the engine cranks then likely he will have spark, that is black and white nearly a sure thing. And as I have described it he would have to go and open up the distributor caps to see what the points are doing anyway as it is a very good possibility at the very least they need filed and cleaned. I see JAN has gone through it all in great detail and I DOUBT HE HAS ADDED anything that could possibly be offensive to the original poster no matter who he is.

If it's due to death, your feelings could be in disarray for days, months or even years. Even now after almost 4 years, I still miss my dad. I remember when I was a kid my dad sometimes would tuck my brother and I in at night and we would ask him questions about his childhood on the farm. To this day, it's some of the best stories I've ever heard. And now, I'm so glad that I asked those questions, and if I were a little smarter i
