Re: no spark
update, cleaned paint off the boss on the head where dist goes, had a weak spark at points still and no spark from coil. rechecked clearences and found rotor to cap about .060. Replaced rotor and reduced gap but still no spark. Replaced the coil wire from from my driver model a and had spark. Hit carb with either and engine fired right up and ran for a couple of seconds. Found ignition switch defective but not always. new switch coming. Coil wire came from a ford V8 and I guess that the wire was the modern style and Henry didn't like it. New wire also coming. I am not there yet but getting there. I had to stop for the day to go teach a class so hopefully it should be resoved in the next 2 days.
