Still no spark. The solder connections at the coil buttons look to be factory, so the primaries haven’t been overheated from resoldering. I’m not sure why the primary starts at 3.6 ohms, then goes to zero.

Going back to the points, there are tiny, and prone to get lost, insulators that go around the threaded part of the two screws that hold the point halves together. They resemble tiny cut pieces of tubing and are not very visible on assembled points. These insulators prevent the tiny screws from making an electrical connection from one side of the points to the other side. Without the insulators the effect would be that the points open mechanically, but not electrically resulting in no spark. Just one of many things to check.
