1200 No spark!! FRUSTRATED!!!
Hello all!!
Been doing a "refresh" to say on a 1200. Gonna tell you all the story first.
Got it for free with a bad 3 pin driver and throw out in pieces.
Pulled motor, clutch and had new throw out installed and bought a used but good condition 3 pin driver. In process I have done the following.
New Battery
New Battery Cables
New Grounding Locatons
New Silly-noid
New Ignition Coil- relocated to under dash
New Condenser
New Points
New Ignition Switch
New Head Gasket
New Head Bolts
New Solid Motor Mounts On Order
Rebuilt Carb
New Air Filter
New Rear End Fluid and Gasket
Repainted Deck
Sharpened Blades
New Mule Drive Belt
New Deck Drive Belt
Now I am putting everything back together, no motor mounts and rear end not hooked up yet.
Looked, looked, looked, read, read, read, checked and double, triple, quadruple checked the wiring diagram on here and now.........
NO SPARK!!!
FYI I did have this tractor running and deck pto working before all the work was done so I know it was a good unit before just bad clutch.
I dont know where to look. Any wires I have cut were to replace a bad spot or make a wire longer. Have checked all connections. Turns over awesome!!! Tryed old igniton coil. No luck. I have a test light but no anameter. One place that does not seem to have any power is the + wire off of the ignition coil.
Now I guess I have a dumb question. On new Points, is there some kind of coating on the contacts? I did not scuff them as I figured new were all good. Should I try that?
Guys this has me baffled!!! My current mower is getting close to her life ending. Its a "newer" style but it was free also. I want my CUB and I want her NOW!!! Hahahah. Im pouting writing this. Im just really frustrated. Well I am really something else but I know we dont use those bad words here. HEHEH!!
Any help would be awesome. I just want to get my motor mounts in when they get here, hook up rear end, put grill on, put mule drive on, put mower deck on and mow with her!!!
Thanks guys.
John
