quote FrankR:
Without going into detail, SOME motors had "Maverick Spark Suppressors". Those required a separate ground wire for the secondary winding. In other words, they had 4 wires total. Unless I am totally mistaken, your motor does not have the spark suppressors, so it doesn’t need a separate ground wire for the secondary winding. So, securely ground the one ground wire, hook the rest up normally, and you are good to go.
Thanks Frank. Did my dirt dauber best on the plug wire and reassembled the ignition. I have spark! I only had to make one trip to the hardware store to replace the little bitty ground screw that I dropped somewhere when cleaning the mag plate.
