I have a 48' Cub that I had the same problem with. Make sure you have current to your coil's high side. Then make sure your points haven't gotten way out of gap. My problem was after I checked current, new coil, new points, I accidently hit the rotor and noticed it spun freely. The rotor gear had broken and it would not turn the rotor, hence now fire. Check that first may save you a lot of time. Also take of your dist. cap and make sure the liitle ball in the middle on the under side where the coil wire plugs in has not broken off or fell out. I also had that problem it causes no fire to reach the rotor. Sorry so long winded. Hope this helps, let me know if I can be of any other assistance. Bill {Antique Acres}
