Default Fixed.......sort of

I decided to take points cover off.......have the plug out and on the heat shield and turn the key nice strong spark at the points and the spark plug......Hmmmm weird. I put the points cover back on........ NO spark !!! take it off......SPARK......... Then I remembered the cover was not all the way snugged up when I took it off............ Looks like the points cover is grounding something out........ The gasket looks a bit compressed, so I will get a new gasket and see if that is the issue....... I also need to change the wire from points to coil, it looks original......does anyone know if this should be a solid wire or stranded? Thanks
