    Mark 20 has magneto 301-73. Cam is on magnet rotor
    Swapping in KNOWN good coils and condensers would narrow the field of possible problems. Be aware that for a spark to jump spark plug gap under compression requires much more voltage that to jump same gap in open air.
    Coils with internal leakage may show a spark in open .but, ground out internally rather than thru spark plug when under compression.

    Compare your reassembled points with a set that works…Murphy’s Law states when it is
    equally likely to assemble something correctly or incorrectly , chance favors the wrong way.
    I am well acquainted with Mr. Murphy’s Laws…unfortunately.
    About all I know of subject.
