[QUOTE="jredman941, post: 482399, member: 30788"] I mostly tested for continuity, I had no spark at all so a weak spark was not my issue. Update to my problem : I took it all apart and cleaned all of the parts, put it back together, properly gapped the points and the coils, I now have fire, I checked the spark plugs again and found the gap to be completely closed, upon further inspection I found the pistons were making contact, the previous owner put the wrong plugs in it. I will put new in tomorrow, maybe the old girl will start. Wish me luck. [/QUOTE]
