swampcat said: (quoted from post at 04:21:48 05/28/09) After cutting a pasture for about an hour my "64 Case 530 gas died while idling. Last year I changed the dist cap, plug wires, condenser & rotor and points.
It"s got no fire at the points when I open them with the key on and no fire at the plug wires when I crank it over. There"s fire from the coil wire when I crank. When it died it just killed as if I'd turned the key off. There was no sputter...it just stopped.
I"m no mechanic. Does this sound like the condenser gave out?
Thanks in advance.

Just because parts are new, doesn't eliminate their failure.
I have installed many electrical parts that were defective.
This is espically true with the Chinese parts we get today.
It sounds like you have a problem with the rotor or distributor cap.
If the coil is working the points are at least "breaking".
Inspect the distributor and the rotor for "carbon tracking", which would indicate a crack.
