Hi Listers, I have a rather urgent problem on behalf of a non-list pal.  He
successfully started his Morris woodie engine following a total overhaul.
It's a 1275 from a Spridget with a Pertronix.  Pre-start testing showed a
hot, fat spark from the coil with plug wire to ground.   That night he
accidentally left the ignition switched on for several hours.  Now the spark
is skinny and sorta pink colored and the engine won't hit at all.  What got
cooked??  The coil??  The Pertronix??  Something else??  Feedback would be
appreciated.  Thanks in advance,
Jack Brashear
Little Rock, Arkansas
