It would not even fire. When I opened the points by hand, they sparked. I traded the rotor and cap from a different tractor and it started.
Put the "BAD" rotor and cap back on the other tractor. We pull started the second tractor and it ran just fine.
Now six weeks later, my first tractor is back to not having any spark to the plugs again.
If the points have voltage to them, what other problems can there be besides the rotor and the cap? Could it be that the battery to weak to get enough voltage to the coil, while the starter is being engaged? The battery is still able to roll the motor over fast enough that it should start and long enough as well.
Thank you SDE
