Thank you for your immediate and insightful support, it has given me some ideas. Yes the rotor button is also new, the only thing not new or rebuilt is the distributor it self, otherwise "all" it's components are new. I just can't get this engine to run well, and perhaps a part of it "may be" a poor spark. The engine was completely rebuilt and a rebuilt Carter W1 carb installed and it still runs poorly or not at all. I have considered pulling the distributor and rebuilding or replacing it. Some one mentioned that a 6 volt systems does not make for a real strong spark so perhaps a little help like the "Pertronix" may help. Any further thoughts please let me know. Again, thanks.
God bless,
Dave
