If the cables are hot, you have cranked too long (30 seconds max) or have a bad connection somewhere. The tuneup specs are found in the "Tune-up Specs" link on the left side of this page. Next attempt determine what is not happening: 1. is there spark at the right time? Make sure the wires in the distributor are not accidentally grounded. 2. is the compression decent? Squirt some oil in each cylinder to regain what has disappeared with your starting attempts. 3. is there a fresh fuel supply (less than a month old) getting to the cylinders? Remove the spark plugs & put a teaspoon of gas in each cylinder, replace the plugs , turn on the switch, and try cranking. The 12 volt system is negative grounded and the coil negative terminal should be attached to the points terminal. Take your time, check out each component like you were Sherlock Holmes and you should have a running "M" soon.
