On my Unstyled John Deere A with a WICO X mag, I have blue spark when it is there, but whenever I can get it started it runs well 80% of the time and kind of hunts/misses the other times. I had it running for 15 minutes just now and 2 or 3 times it completely lost spark and acted like the ignition had been switched off. It would catch itself again and run smoothly, then miss a little, and keep repeating this. Last time this happened you guys recommended moisture in the mag. Since then I have had the tractor out twice, one of the times being 3 hours and it got fully up to temp etc. It ran well then. The only thing that I have changed recently was that I set the point gap to .015. (Fixed the slightly yellow spark) It was too wide before. Does this sound like a bad condenser? Moisture again? Something else? Thank you again
