I've been working on my '73B, which has not run since I bought it about six 
months ago.  In trying to get it ready to crank, I find I have an ignition 
problem which I would appreciate any help available from the list in 
resolving.

I am getting no spark at all.   I replaced the points and condenser,  rotor, 
distributor cap, the ignition wires and even resorted to a new coil - all to 
no avail.

The battery is adequately charged, the starter seems to be turning fine, the 
oil pressure climbs, but no spark!!!  - not even when the lead wire from the 
coil is held within a quarter inch of the engine block and the engine is 
cranked.

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Joe Hutchins
