Re: coil colors

Take a good look at your plug wires both under the flywheel and outside of it. Make sure they are tight/secure in the coils and not chafing anywhere. A chafed section grounding out can cause that too. As long as you have the flywheel off polish the points real well and clean and tighten all connections from points and condensers. Check the boot to plug wire connections as well. Would the laminations being to tight to the flywheel cause this as well….Frank?
