I am bringing my dad's 73 c10 w/ 350 v8 back into commission. Its been out in the weather for years and I had to do a good bit of work on it. I got it turning over and got fuel, but no spark. I unplugged the coil wire and was only getting a small spark from it when i turned the motor over. So I removed the dist. cap, cleaned the rotor, etc. Still no spark. The points appear to be working, but I can't quite get to them to clean them. Does the rotor just pull straight up and off? so hooked a jumper from the positive on the batt to pos side of the ignition coil and got a good spark. I haven't tried to start it up since then b/c I had to go back to college so it will be three weeks before I can try it again.
Thanks, pluton

you really should scrap that points distribator, and put in a H.E.I. it would be a lot simpler. good day!
