Points are to spec, reverse spring is great and I am at 9.8 volts while cranking so I assume the starter is not drawing to much power battery is a good battery and I scuffed inside of cap and rotor with scotch bright
That’s what I thought just seems weird If I turn the key on and move the timing plate toward the back of the motor and I have the spark tester on cylinder two it sparks bright blue it’s like when I do that it opens the points but doesn’t seem to make sense why it doesn’t spark when cranking
So, I have a 1971 60esl-71c I have been working on and I can’t seem to get spark is there a certain orientation of the distributer cap or something also it has timing marks on the flywheel but the flywheel itself and the rotor button are botched into the crank do I have to set the timing ?
