Re: I’m wondering if my coil is going bad
Over the last several days, the car has gotten harder and harder to start, to the point that it would not start today. This afternoon, I put the original (to me) Ford script coil back in the car, and it would not start. I reinstalled my original (to me) condenser, and the car would not start. It didn’t look like I was getting much spark; so, I checked the points, and the point gap was off from where I set it a few weeks ago. I reset the point gap, and the car started great.
The lock screw (for lack of a better term) seemed to be tight on the point set screw. I wouldn’t think the rub block would have worn that much in 300 miles or so.
Does anyone have any ideas about why point gap would appear to “slip?”
