Other than bad connections you just night have a bad resistor to cut the 6 volts to 4.6 volts to the points. My 44 2N has been running for some time with that resistor bypassed.

We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
