Hi,
I am new to your list, but am having problems with a 67 V7 I bought
recently. I am not getting any spark. I have a new coil and put in new
points. I am pretty sure I set the points to the proper gap with the
left cylinder at compression with the pully slot aligned with the arrow.
I can see a spark when the points open/close.

I put a continunity check and I get a signal when I touch the arm of the
points with the housing. I do not when I disconnect the condensor. Do
I have a bad condensor, have it hooked up wrong, or is the proper
situation. Thanks.
