i pick up a old hs40. i replaced the coil and condinser and it got some spark. once i put the points in i got nothing. i gap to 20 thousandth. and nothing still. i kept checking the points gap and it dead on. idk what to do. i called a local small engine shop to see if they can get it working. but would like to get it running myself. please help

when you installed the new points did you run some 600 grit sand paper over the contacts first? sometimes there's a coating on them from the factory. also i assume you replaced the condenser too right?
