On my model 71, I had the slightest crack in the condenser insulation at the seal where the wire went in to the condenser. That would attract a little moisture and it would be game the #$%^ over every time, complete shut down of a running engine.
How's the points look?

Points looked OK to me, although I didn't look at them with a magnifier. The points wire does have a break in the insulation about halfway along its length.
