I am missing spark on my top cylinder and have ruled out the coils and I am working on the points. Would anyone know off hand which point set (starboard or portside) goes to the top cylinder?

Gee, why not test it. Turn the motor until the top piston is at top dead center. Now see which set of points is open.

Thanks Chris. Not sure why I didn't think of that. For anyone interested the starboard point goes to the top cylinder on this motor.
