Re: cant figure out fire to dizzy
I hope I am understanding your problem. You should be able to manually open/close points and get spark. Have you checked to see if the wire connected to the points has power? On Mallory dist. make sure that the point where wires come into dist. is not shorting at the insulator block. If this all checks out I would look for a bad condenser or a shorted set of points. If you hold the secondary tower wire near metal and manually operate the points you should get spark assuming the coil is good. Are you considering refurbish because of a loose shaft?

Re: cant figure out fire to dizzy
Can you post a picture of the burgundy condenser? I am having trouble determining what you are referring to.
