Rustred, I would just ask that you look at the number of post a person has to see if he is new here, he even tells you he is new. Then try to just focus on answering the problem he has posted about and not add other interjections. Your last sentence says ..As this is getting to be that young people have no clue.. So if he is a young person which you or I do not know and he reads that what do you think he will take away from that? You may have in your head thought that you were just applying that comment to what he knows about mechanical things. In fact he could easily take it as a slam to the intelligence of everyone he knows. My post is information only, not commentary. As to how I directed him to approach his problem, sure you have probably looked at dozens of sets of points in your lifetime. He maybe has never looked at any. In the end if he gets the wire going to the distributor to turn the test light on and off as the engine cranks then likely he will have spark, that is black and white nearly a sure thing. And as I have described it he would have to go and open up the distributor caps to see what the points are doing anyway as it is a very good possibility at the very least they need filed and cleaned. I see JAN has gone through it all in great detail and I DOUBT HE HAS ADDED anything that could possibly be offensive to the original poster no matter who he is.

Today's Featured Article - Identifying Tractor Smells - by Curtis Von Fange. We are continuing our series on learning to talk the language of our tractor. Since we can’t actually talk to our tractors, though some of the older sect of farmers might disagree, we use our five physical senses to observe and construe what our iron age friends are trying to tell us. We have already talked about some of the colors the unit might leave as clues to its well-being. Now we are going to use our noses to diagnose particular smells. ELECTRICAL SMELLS
