replacing points issue
Posted: Wed Jun 19, 2013 6:56 pm
hello today i replaced the points and condenser on the cub the old points were in terrible shape. probably the reason the engine is getting no spark. well got the gap correct put the rotor assembly back on put the cap and wires back on, and hooked the spark tester back up and no spark. i read the on here the points have some sort of film on them for storage i guess. so i took it back apart and took the points off to clean the contacts with some cardboard and rubbing alchohol put them back on and now i cant adjust them they just touch each other. anyone had this happen? should i try to bend the spring thing back somewhat? thanks for any advise
