    Fleetwin…..and all ………….. Making progress 🙂


    well I used my fat alligators clips to ground the 2 plugs and….. SPARKS on one plug … the top plug 🙂

    will continue testing but the promised land is in sight !

    Cajuncook1……. The maintenance book says to never polish the points…. just clean them with acetone or carb cleaner

    anyhow…I have polished & cleaned points before on oldies ……. maybe the 9.5’s are picky ???

    in any event I’ll rework points & condensers to get me some sparks on the bottom plug

    conclusion … looks very well like my trusted (spread gap) spark tester can’t be trusted so much

    Fleetwin … wins the quiz……having opened the door to happiness 🙂 thanks to all for your guidance .. the crow can wait for now

    Final outcome will be written up when both plugs are firing hot sparks

    patience does bring joy….
