New member with a problem
I had a similar frustrating problem with no spark and found after I had installed new points, plugs, wires, rotor, cap and condenser that the wire between the points and the coil apparently had a small perforation in the insulation that had allowed water to penetrate into the wire and while laid up, corroded a section of the wire inside, causing a break in the continuity. I replaced that 8 inch piece of #16 wire with a new tinned and shrink tubed crimped on end piece and VOILA, spark! It's simple to check the continuity & resistance with an Ohm meter. My dad always said to fix the simple things first.
