Thats what I was afraid of but that wasn't the problem.



I pulled the dizzy to switch out the wire only to find it was in perfect
condition.B  the odd thing was that I apparently wore down my point so far
that it no longer contacted the spindle and could not be tightened to make
it.B  Anybody ever see that? or did i cause it by shorting out the dizzy?B 
Either way i swapped in my spare dizzy and she fired right up.B  Now I just
have to hope my timing isn't to far out.B  well I will go for a ride tomorrow
and find out.

Thanks

Ryan,

If it has points, you probably fries the connector wire inside the B 
dizzy that the negative wire connects to on the side of the dizzy. B 
(That's where the spade connector for the (-) wire should go).

It only takes a split second of (+) voltage to fry the wire inside B 
the dizzy.

Easy to replace.....
