Default Re: No spark?

touches ground but nothing from the heavy coil feed wire
Just a thought , to get a spark from the heavy feed wire you need a condenser involved ,one wire to + side of the coil and the condenser body tag grounded ,If you have replaced the points and if not set correctly then it wont work specially if one or the other point set is closed all the time , at some point the circuit must be broken .With some point sets available now ( not USA ones ) its hard to set them ,you could try and block off one set with a piece of paper then flick the other set it should throw a spark of the heavy feed wire ,
