So I tried nearly everything but using the timing tool, I just couldn’t get the bottom point to break using the multimeter. This included trying a few different points. BUT, when I go the basic method without the tool, I can get them both to open easily by lining the “Top” arrow on the cam up with the edge of the point aimed it. That works great. It bugs me about the tool since I know it works great and has for me in the past the couple of times I have used it.
I also noticed tonight one coil’s grounding wire insulation has rubbed away a bit. You can see bare wire some. I wouldn’t have thought it would have rubbed. Thoughts on that? Do you do anything in those instances? Wrap it with anything? These are two new OMC coils I put in a few weeks ago before I decided to go back in and put new points and condensers in. The old coils were cracked to heck.
Gonna try to get the fly wheel back on and see what we have after I give it a second look tomorrow. Thanks for your help!
