[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 306924, member: 3278"] As long as the flywheel has magnets that are magnetized (this is a hint so check this) the spark should occur. Neither the armature plate or the crankshaft has anything to do with it. The flywheel will control the timing and that could be an issue if it is the incorrect one but it should produce spark. One thing that comes to mind here. See if the points cam says "UP" on the top of it. If this is one of the points cams that can be installed either way the spark will not occur if the cam is upside down. The field will close or collapse too slowly for spark to occur. This is how these engines were kept from running reverse rotation. [/QUOTE]
