53 Golden Jubilee Won't start-

Hi everyone, it's Pam again, sent on a mission to ask you a question for the hubby.

He has a 53 Golden Jubilee tractor with a new 6 volt coil, points & condensor.

The problem is
The spark to the points is very weak.
No spark coming out of the top of the coil or distributor.
Was running when shut off with the key, but now it won't start again.

Thank you for any help
Pam-for David

One thing I like to do is use a jumper wire from battery hot direct to the coil. This bypasses the ignition switch any any bad connections you may have between the battery and the coil.
