Lights, possibly ignition switch, left on overnight. After charging batt back up, she turns over fine, but no fire at points. 12V conversion w alt. several years ago. Checked continuity across poles of switch, in the wire running from switch to coil, and across terminals of a ceramic resister by the coil that has something to do with the 12V conversion.

4) I need to get the old girl out of my Dad's shop before he just yanks it out.
