Re: MG wouldn't start

Hi Bernie,
I think that could be your problem. You have to ensure
that the loop in the end of the points spring only
makes contact with the wire to the Terminal and the
orange wire to the condenser. It must not contact the
plate or stud in any way.

Do you still have your old points? Maybe the other
nylon washer is still stuck to it.
