[QUOTE="LaqueRatt, post: 495858, member: 32586"] I'm no expert, but brought a Fastwin back from the dead last year. Had trouble telling if had spark or not until I bought a cheap spark tester. They're only about 10 bucks. I suggest you get yourself one. I had one coil that stopped firing once the motor warmed up and also had a bad connection where the plug wire came out of one of the coils. Your points will remain closed until the rub bar gets to the high point of the cam, then they'll gradually open up to .020 and close again after it come downs off that lobe. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
