Ok I'm so lost I don't know where to begin. 1960 Series 1 it hasn't run for at least 5 years. Father-In-Law said it ran as is when he put it in the garage, He's semi retired so I told him id help him get her going again.
No matter what I do I cant get spark, I replaced the coil, points, condenser , cap, rotor button (not defective kind floating around) and plug wires.
No matter what variation I try nothing works. I've read where wires are supposed to come from but its not the same on this car, maybe a later model?
I have a wire coming from the fuse panel to the resistor and then to the coil, then to the distributor.
I don't know if the wires under the cap are in the wrong order or if I'm missing something.
I went through this with a 65 Corvair and had it running in less than an hour I don't know if the fact that its still positive ground or what. I've been working on cars for about 20 years and this is the first one to stump me like this. Maybe the car just hates me.
