Opened the switch and cleaned all contacts. Re installed. Getting about 5.4 volts at coil with key on so apparently switch is functioning. Still no start. Seems like no spark. Resistance test on coil gives me 0.6 and 8400 ohms. Will have to get a helper to do spark test at plugs. Will very intermittently fire. Maybe points and condenser.
