KM sometimes those cracked coils will spark.  But those pieces of plastic flake off and get stuck in the strangest places!   Ebay has lots of them for sale.  All kinds of prices.  CCI has been a good one.  Most of the members here like the coils marked made in Germany.  I don’t think those are manufactured anymore.  I sometimes will buy the entire used coil backing plate, points and condenser if I can tell it has the German coils.  Marine engine.com has them also.  No deals there though!  Those coils were the same for many years.  ’51 to ’72  maybe more.
