Still trying to get spark on this H35 side popper. Right off the bat I changed the points and condenser as I had them around and best to just do that anyway. I still didn't get spark. I think disconnected the kill switch wire in case there was a short or a fray in the wire i wasn't seeing and switched out the coil for another one I had on a blown engine. Still no spark. I'm using a brand new plug by the way and the flywheel magnets are strong. So then I figured I'd time it just for giggles and I experienced something weird. I disconnected the leads from the stator plate and clipped on the positive wire from my multimeter and I clipped the neg wire on a cooling fin and it made the squeel it makes when contact is made but it stopped within 5 seconds. Then nothing. I tried other areas to ground the ground wire on but nothing. I assume this is the coil because the condener is new and the coil is just a left over that could have been dead. If you are going to time an engine and you hook up the multimeter and get no juice even when points are making contact, does it point to the coil?
