I've tried two coils, and get the same response:
which is one spark when I first turn the key to Start, then no more sparks.
Any suggestions?
Bad points, or bad condenser. Put a plug wire directly to the coil,
and ground the plug. With the motor turned so the points are closed,
use a small screwdriver to open the points. You should get a spark...
If not, make sure the condenser is not shorted - and make sure the
wires from Dist. to coil aren't broken or shorted somewhere.
Also check the wire that grounds the points plate to the distributor...
