Help she no go....

UPDATE.


Since I last tinkered on her:


-I re-timed her and go her dead on with the dimple right in the hole. And the rotor at #1 stud in the body

-I unscrewed the cable thinking it was in so far it was grounding the lower plate out

-Tested the coil and got a good blue spark
-6v at the points and continuity checked from points to stud


Last night she attempted to fire with all the and the cable not bolted down. This morning I bolted the cable down and now get nothing and the cable is in only about 2 complete turns thinking the spring was so strong it was grounding. Just out of curiosity I did a continuity check on the cable and got continuity between the brass dimple on the cable and the aluminum housing plus the armored cable. I thought the wire is supposed to be isolated until screwed into the dist. housing.
