Swapped points/cond/rotor/cap and coil-won't start.

Hello All,

I've been going through my cooling system. Rebuilt raw water pump, had heat exchanger serviced, fresh water pump inspected and reassembled, new hoses, new expansion tank.

Since I had good access to the distributor, I decided to change points, condenser, rotor and cap. I did not adjust the timing. I simply matched the existing points gap. I also had a new coil in waiting and decided to change that as well. I now have no spark. One possible factor, during the disassembly, I failed to shut off the main switch and shorted something while removing the alternator. I'm not aware of any fuses that I should be checking (unless in line at the battery bank, will check next visit). Any thoughts?

Also, tips on purging air out of the freshwater side?

Thanks,

cityhix
