Ok, using the additional information, I just re-read your original post. The
advice you copied was simply wrong ... the two wire connections go UNDER the top
insulator, meaning they are connected directly to the points spring and not to
the post & nut. The insulator is shaped like a top hat, be sure the crown of
the hat fits down into the loop of the spring.
Not that I've ever made that mistake, oh no, not me <VBG>
