Hello, need some help here. My 127 looks to have no spark. it was running fine and I cam out to a dead battery the other day. Battery is good had it checked at 2 places and is holding perfect charge connected to tractor now, at 12.8v. I had cleaned all the ground contacts and she spins real fast now. Problem is it does not start.
What I checked and results:
points - gapped at .020 (this is where it was while running i did not change it)
Plug - new autolite 216
I have 12v at the coil in the start and run position
I have 12v at the VR where it should
took plug out connected to wire and held by bolt and no spark.....while cranking
The points and condenser, coil are all less than 6 months old.
While trying to start it, it finally had a HUGE LOUD backfire pop !! sounded like a gun shot.....
I think there is a possibility that I maybe left the key in the run position overnight and thats why the battery was dead? Could this toast the points?
it also has a brand new wireharness and there is no draw.
Help , snow is comming
