Points Points Points

First off, at some point this blog will be about working on a 1961 Crestliner, for now though it is about working on the motor that will push the boat. So I got new points and a coil and installed them and there was NO spark. Started looking around and trying to figure out what is going on. Took all the wires off of the points and hooked up some leads. Found out that the points were not closing all the way. They were opening but not closing. A couple of adjustments later and Spark appeared !!! Time to start cleaning up the motor. Here is a picture of the magneto assembly ready to go. Just have to  put the fly wheel back in place.
