    So after going over everything again checking ignition and carb… it looks as I have a bad coil. What was once creating spark is no longer. The condenser is showing capacitance of .278 so I am going to believe at the moment that it is within speck. The coil however is only showing .4 ohms on the primary and 0 ohms on the secondary. Points are set to .020 and are set with the the high side of the cam towards the points indicated by the magneto. Unless I am mistaken it looks as if I need a new coil.
