Also, check to see that the bare copper wire from the side of the distributor (inside where the wire connects to the screw on the outside)to the points is not grounding against the inside of the distributor. I have seen this problem on other tractors and the distributor components seem to be the problem. Cheap fix to replace these even if I am wrong. I suspected the float in the past but it was ok in my experience. It is worth a try before messing with the distributor.. Just my $.02. Good luck.

This charge is released all at once when the points close. This causes the spark plug to arc. > > Ernie Ferguson > Maryville, MO Indeed, Ernie, a condenser is a capacitor. However, with all due respect, the rest of your description contains inaccuracies. Here's the deal. The high-voltage spark is created by the coil, which is a transformer, with a primary (low-voltage) side and a secondary (high-voltage) side. The primary side connects to the battery and points, and the secondary side connects to the spark plug. When the points are closed, a circuit is completed, and current flows through the coil primary. This "charges" the coil's magnetic field. When the points open, current stops, and the field collapses. The energy of this field is transferred magnetically to the secondary, creating a brief high-voltage pulse as the field dissipates. A problem is created in switching the coil on and off rapidly. The coil primary has very high inductance. It is the nature of inductance to attempt to oppose a change in current. When the points open, the circuit is broken therefore current wants to go to zero NOW, but, the inductance of the coil fights this change. As the inductance continues to try to drag current where current can no longer flow (points are open) a high voltage is created at the points. By "high voltage" we're talking a few hundred volts, nothing like the spark plug voltage which is in the thousands of volts. A few hundred volts is enough to create an arc across the points, causing rapid erosion and failure if left unchecked. Enter the condenser. It connects across the points to ground and absorbs that high-voltage pulse coming out of the coil primary and supresses the arc across the points. Best regards, Steve O.
