Points and condensers go out quite often, even when they "look" good. If you are wiring correctly, and if your wires are not frayed or broken, I would highly suggest getting another set of points and condenser. While you are at it, pick up a couple.

For price considerations, if you check with Advance or Autozone, you could probably get a new distributor, complete with new points and condensor for a little less than $40. Just letting you know this when you start looking at getting points and condensor sets. Some places have them priced way too high.

Let us know how it works out.

Stephen,

Great stuff! Keep it up...nothing like the satisfaction of hearing that vintage V8 fire off and rumble.

Stick with it. There are quite a few fellas on this site that can give you quite a bit of help. If you haven't subscribed to the Y Block Magazine, by all means, do that soon. Check the link section here on this site. Bruce Young, the editor, is a great guy, knows Y blocks, and puts out a great magazine.

Keep posting those videos...Tim McMaster has some good ones on YouTube as well if you haven't seen those yet.
